The Indian Antiquary[edit]

  • ... that due to enemy action in World War I, one set of expensive epigraphic illustration plates for The Indian Antiquary had to be sent from London to Bombay three times?

Created by Philafrenzy (talk), Edwardx (talk). Nominated by Edwardx (talk) at 19:26, 3 June 2014 (UTC).

  • The article is long enough, new enough, and timely nominated. The hook is interesting and well cited. Images are OK (public domain) and no copyvios are found. QPQ done. I took the liberty of tweaking the hook to get rid of the awkward "once... three times". Good to go. --MelanieN (talk) 17:54, 11 June 2014 (UTC)
