Matchlock, regarding the Wallace Collection usb drive.

Thanks a lot, Jasper,

May I ask:

What about early firearms: matchlocks and wheellocks - are the insides of lock mechanisms depicted?

How many images per item on average does the stick contain?

The reason why I hesitate is the fact that there is almost no plain, 'military'-type stuff in the Wallace which interests me most, and many of their highly decorated items are composite (at best) or otherwise altered.

Best,
Michael
