The concept behind the Pictorial Supplements to the LMS Profile Series is to make available more good quality photographs than could be reasonably accommodated in the main title. Thus the content of this book is largely confined to images of those Black Five locomotives originally built with sloping throatplate fireboxes and Walshaerts or Stevenson valve gear, showing the engines in service with close-up views of individual mechanical features and detailed captions to highlight features illustrated by each photograph.
