Schu mine 44

I am trying to relate sizes that i have of the Schu mine 44 to the pictures and drawings i have of it. The sizes i have are from a French manual, great i thought until i translated the wording relating to the measurements, it seems i have a mixture of sizes for the bottom box and the lid, quite confusing, the measurements are all there but need relating to what part. The only measurement that is clear is the angle of the front of the lid at 30 degrees.
Measurements as follows;

Anterior height face 66mm
Posterior height face 57mm
upper lid 120mm x 174mm
Height bottom 120mm x 146mm
Box height 57mm
Length 127mm
Width 95mm

Is the upper lid measurement, the top of the lid and the height bottom, the bottom of the lid.? Would the anterior and posterior be the front and back of the lid, the posterior being the rear hinged end? Would the Box height, length and width relate to the bottom box?
 
I know a guy who has an original piece.
Please tell me the required dimensions and I'll get in touch with him about that.
