There is no LVA Plate for this page. Hope this helps you. The break starts in the field as shown with the calipers between the 8 and 7 in the first hair-vee. Continues at the angle shown and the break ends before the 2nd hair-vee; however, later die stages may have it go longer. The break follows the ruler.
