This is the only picture I currently have of a Canadian Centurian 5/11 in Europe. It is from the the 1975/1 issue of Sentinel and has a negative number IMC 74-084 attached. Don't know if these can still be acquired.
I had a bunch of slides of Centurians in a compound waiting disposal that I took in 1977. However, i foolishly lent my slides to someone for a slide show and never got them back. Live and learn.
