They are the first three entries under Muckley research http://muckley.us/research.htm

some of you mafioso types may also be interested in the 1386 resource pages. This was an ambitious project. It never really got finished. Eventually I may go back ot work on it. If you have images I could use I'd love ot have them http://muckley.us/1386/
