You might find that some of the early patents had no drawings.
Hi Richard, thanks for this tip. I was able to get the patent drawing from GB through a different source, but I also need some German patents. I was not aware of the Google option to select countries and will try that for the German ones I need.

I'm trying to be authoritative with what I write about in Barton Book 7 so am trying to locate original sources, like patents.
