Very nice Rog you have any idea what time period that is from or a specific year? Interesting to that they are rosecomb. Thanks for posting.

Rog-I have seen this drawing before, it's used as the standard illustration by the ABA-have you come across a painted/color version of it by van Gink? Howard

    Howard   No. Jan Ubels in Holland just sent me that picture. He said they used it for the type in the Holland standard. I don`t know if Jan can get the Holland standard as it would need to be translated.   Rog

This shows the Nankin with a more 'strutting' true bantam type, but I'm not convinced by the amount of black showing in the birds' tails, particularly the female. . . a British perspective of course!!

Interestingly enough even though it's in black and white you can still see the two colour markings of the tail.

Mousy.
