Gallery of images from Vermaseren's "Mithras: the secret god"

Vermaseren's popular paperback, "Mithras: the secret god" is widely referenced online, as are the line-drawings that illustrated it. There is a very long excerpt here. Unfortunately the images are not identified by Vermaseren, other than in general terms. Probably his publisher pointed out that it was for a general readership. However it would be helpful to be able to check the claims made. The following table includes the image, the legend given in the online page (the numbers are different from that of the paper publication), and the CIMRM number. More will be added as they are identified.
