Thanks to Tony and the others who have posted here since.
There is an older thread on this forum that showed some of the Doxford pictures but they are no longer viewable there.
It appears that the information from Alfons's site has been hosted here now .
I was able to get these,
to display in a large format on my screen .
The lathe in that picture reminds me a lot of a mid 1950s German made Heyligenstaedt lathe that is local to me.
this one is a newer version from a Google image search .
