I've not owned the WS-19 for some time now, but while cleaning out some  
other items I came across some really neat, ORIGINAL paperwork.
 
Manual #1--- "Working Instructions" Part 1. for the WS-19 Mk 1, Mk 2 and Mk  
3 produced in North America.  42 pages with a schematic and original tag  for 
the variometer in the rear pocket.  This manual is usable, but the  insides 
have long since separated from the cover pages.  Some of the  "cartoon" 
characters look like those penned by "TING" but I can find nothing  verifying that.  A 
real must for the collector and user of the WS-19.
 
Manual #2... "Working Instructions" for the WS No. 19, MkII (as  manufactured 
in Canada and the U.S.A.)    93 pages and is dated 1  July 1942.   This 
manual is in excellent condition and shows its age  well.  Intact and with spline 
and contents still cemented together.
 
Item # 3........ A folded schematic of the WS-19.  Someone penciled on  it 
"schematic of British-Russian tank transceiver.  Paper is yellowed and  soiled.  
But able to be unfolded and read.   Obviously  original.
 
Item # 4...........One small approx. 4" x 5" envelope containing a wiring  
diagram for control and interconnection of the WS-19.   Diagram is in  good 
shape.   The envelope is fragile, but readable writing on  front.
 
Item # 5......... Small, approx. 4" x 5" envelope containing four  sheets.  
Installation prints for the WS-19 in a M4 Medium Tank 76mm.   Prints are folded 
and in good condition.  Envelope is torn and  ugly.........but readable and 
perfect for the collector.
 
These are excellent additions to the WS-19 fraternity of collectors.
 
I will mail them CONUS to your QTH for $45.
 
Please respond off the list.
 
Thanks es 73 de W4MIL
