Perkasa photo album

Hi Ed,

I don't have a print shop locally to copy them, but when I find the originals they should be in a card tube that I could send them to you in if you would like them - as I have no need to keep them,

First I need to find them and then take a few snaps so you can let me know if they would be of any use to you.

Hi Bob,

If you can find the drawings of the Perkasa, could you make a copy for me. Let me know the cost and I will reimburse you.
It will really help with the re-build of my one

Regards
Ed

I can find the plans for you if they are of any interest - they are highly detailed and will make a very good reference ( which is why I bought them).

Not too sure about the scale until I find them though..........🤔

A 1:12 scale Perkasa would be a very impressive model, but sadly too big for my model room and probably my car as well. The 1:24 Precedant Perkasa was a pretty chunky model, more than big enough for me.

There is a chance that I have still got a set of original drawings (copied) for the full size Perkasa somewhere.

I paid quite a lot for them at the time, but never ended up using them.

Scaled to 1/12 - quite a handy size.

I was a picture researcher for quite a few years, mainly for BBC TV News, but also about 3 years working for Clive James. Establishing ownership of photographs and negotiating copyright fees was a major part of my job.

If you found your Perkasa pictures in a book or magazine, there may be a credit to the owner or picture library that markets the picture. If there is no indication, the next step would be to contact the author/publisher of the publication.

It depends on what you intend to use the pictures for. There is no requirement to pay copyright if the pictures are to be used for research. If you intend to use them in a book or magazine article, you must show that you have made a good effort to try to establish who owns the copyright.

That's about all I can say about copyright, but I moved away from that job in 1996, so a lot is likely to have changed, especially with the development of the internet as source of often un-credited material.

I also have a thing about the Perkasa, in fact I bought a ready made (as in factory, not another modeller) Perkasa only this morning!

Scan some of the pictures and then use them on Google to do a search, that may help to see their origin.
