Scope & content

Collection of 19 lines plans, primarily for motor cruisers and launches, circa 1909 to 1920. The majority are pen and ink on thin textured fabric/paper, and a few, as noted below, were created using a blueprint-type process (but are gray or yellow-gray in color). Three drawings also have small areas of color applied in color pencil. All are titled and annotated either "F.S. Nock", "F.S. Nock N.A." or a similar variant. The sheet sizes range from 6 x 15 inches to approximately 20 x 45 inches.
