My grandfather was an aircraft inspector for De Havilland in WWII. This is one of the notebooks he used to study for the job. He drew all the pictures. (ibb.co)

    I'm afraid if they still exist, they're hidden somewhere deep in my mother's attic. He made them more than 40 years ago and died 30 years ago. But one was an alligator skeleton on wheels that you would pull and it would snake around and the other was a large Noah's Ark with a hinged top that he filled with plastic animals.
