With thanks to Tony Betts for first noticing it and then volunteering to bid at the Auction, The Archive has recently acquired this really nice Austin publication poster of a cutaway of a Big 7 engine and gearbox. 

Sincere thanks to Tony for making it possible...

Thanks Tony. Good to see now days the Big 7 is seen now as part of the family.

They must have been very competent foundry workers to cast blocks with complex water jackets and relatively thin cylinder walls. A super drawing.
