Evening

Does anyone out there have a picture of or a schematic of a WW2 No.65 Signal British grenade ? I recently bought an original 1942 dated and marked wooden box with paper label inside but am struggling to find a picture of one ?
Markings on the box state "65 Grenades Type 3 Mk I * Star" if that helps, label inside states "Grenades Signal No.65 ( Each in Cylinder No.282) "cheers guys
 
65 signal grenade is this fired from a cup discharge from a rifle or from a pot on a tank.
 
Are these signals marked with their TYPE? In the image you have the NO 65 MK II. Lynn's book mentions a type 1, 2, and 3 MK II versions. How can you distinguish between them?
