David Moor (1927-2016), Naval Architect
David Moor was a naval architect who worked from the late 1940s initially at Denny with their test tank, and from the early 1950s with Vickers at their test tank located in the South of England. Amongst his collection are a quantity of images and ephemera from John Brown which suggests he had friendly links there. These plans were apparently recovered from a skip as being surplus to requirement.
Fine overall condition with little or no fraying or severe creasing
