Default Another Moorish crossbow

Hello, dear forum members !
Please excuse my English - I'm using Google Translate.
Anyone interested in oriental crossbows is familiar with the Moorish crossbow in the Archaeological Museum of Granada.
For a long time, I considered this crossbow unique and the only one surviving to this day.
However, in David Nicolle's article "Archeological evidence for Mamluk archery," a photograph of a very similar crossbow, presumably of Mamluk manufacture, was shown.
In 2007, Arthur G. Credland published an article about this crossbow in the Society of Archery Antiquaries' Journal, Issue No. 50. Perhaps the article contains good photographs of the crossbow, its dimensions, etc. However, the journal is printed in a very small print run, and I couldn't find this issue online.
I would like to ask forum members for help. If anyone has this magazine, please scan the article or at least take a photo of the crossbow from the article.
