Looking for pictures of a Pearson & Bennion/BUSMC A1

Hi all,

I'm hoping someone on the forum can help me. I've bought an A1 online and I need to pick it up but it's a 3 hour drive away so if I can't fit it in my car first time around it gets pretty annoying.

What I need to figure out is what I'm going to need to get the head off the table (aside from a vat of WD-40 ) and whether the table itself can be reduced to small enough parts to get in the back of my small station wagon or if I need to borrow a mate's ute.

The person I bought it off can't take more pictures because they've stuffed their camera.

Thanks in advance.

its about the boot and saddle making industry in the UK in Victorian times, but there are some interesting things about how the BUSMC became the dominant company, and some of the sharp practices it used
