About this work

This sheet is covered in pencil sketches of airplane parts and assembly diagrams. The lines are light but precise, showing how pieces fit together—wings, tails, and tiny details like cockpit windows. Some areas are shaded with quick pencil strokes, and a few spots have red highlights, maybe to mark important parts. The drawings look like instructions for building a model airplane from a kit. The words "NOT TO SCALE" and "AIRFIX PRODUCTS LTD" are written in the corners, hinting this was meant for hobbyists. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more sketches like this.
