I'll be following this with great interest, I've just started drawing plans based on photos of the original. It would be great to have the actual width of the upper bout, the waist, the lower bout, and the body length. None of the photos I've found are square from the front, so all these would have to be estimated based on the width in the photo and the estimated angle of the shot. I'd rather create the shape based on the actual measurements, but I don't have to have them. I'm not looking to do a copy or replica, just something close to that shape.
