I saw in a thread posted recently that a member was asking about WW1 projectile colours & markings . I have scanned these from my 1926 Text Book of Ammunition . The 1926 edition still shows mainly WW1 items . I hope this may be of interest to collectors of artillery related stuff . Siegfreid .
 
Hi Siegfried,
Any chance you might be able to post a close up of the lower right area on the first page, the part with the small table/ Red 'XXX's, Driving bands, etc. I'm having trouble reading the text.
Old age I guess. My eye's ain't wot they used to be.
Many thanks in advance.
