Here are a couple shots of various 3" baseplates. The early one is currently on ebay through Westland military antiques at only £550 ($900 cdn or so). The second one shown is from the Australian War Memorial website, and the third is off a 3" mortar presently available from Collectors source here in Canada. The last shot is a scan from the 1937 manual for the 3" mortar.

My 3" mortar has the baseplate as pictured from collector's source......small holes and the chain for dragging it around.
