They are annotated by character name and some with extra details for example, 0698 'emerging from tent' which also shows the action occurring. There are also designs for Greek style creatures for example, 0753-4 [with and without animal skin, the latter ahs a colour test attached] and for groups for example, 0711. The set included a round central design motif and the file contains several alternatives, of note is 0722 which features a mosaic like picture of a lady and is drawn on a grid to show dimensions [see 0731 for a coloured version].
