The plates are technical diagrams: a developed cone-and-cylinder layout, a conical surface wrapped with a latitude-longitude grid, a polar projection map of the world, and a gear section with lettered rotating parts. A designer could borrow their clean line diagrams, radial grid patterns and precise lettering as structure for geometric graphics.
