Unfortunately my Friedman's US Cruisers has some water damage on the page with the nice line drawings of the Atlantas. If anyone can scan this page (or provide me with suitably legitimate sources), I would really appreciate it. The current CL-51 in the archive is old and I'd like to update the class.

I have plans for CL-51 pre-war, CL-53 San Diego in its later configurations, and potentially the Juneau post-war CLAAs.

I'll try to scan it tonight. I'll also see if I can locate my Terzibaschitch book on US cruisers and will scan the pages from it. Expect them in your mailbox, Ian.

Those are great! Thanks everyone, I think this will make the drawing much easier to do!
