Summay:

Single Carrier War Kite (kingposts) with small basket plus three lifter kites that appear to be on the verge of looping. Very poor quality with cracking across image Other items that include photographs of kite trains are 019, 020, 050, 090, 115, 218, 284, 331, 366, 427, 487, 492, 535, 537, 538, 547, 548, 550, 557, 730. Most of these images are either poor or they show the train at height and therefore the kites appear as little more than kite-like dots.
