All those that I have noted to date are based on photo evidence - I have not seen any evidence from docs to date. Perhaps other members have ?

I have another one for you. An original photograph from my collection of a Polish Carrier T1290216. The photograph has been cropped but part of the type written inscription is still legible, "...Scotland after his return from the United States... During parade". The image is also extensively stamped on the reverse with variously "Republic of Poland Ministry of Information Foto Service", "Polish Army G.H.Q. Chief Censor", "34 NOT to be published" and the date "18 Jan 1943". There are also several stamps in Polish "Deleget weiskowy do sp..." and I think the photographers name and signature, "Boguslawski pplk. dypl. - Lt. Col."
Edit: More excellent Polish Tank photographs
