W. Bruce Sutherland
I have very little information about William Bruce Sutherland, He was a Scottish Physical Culturist and Martial artist. He released two books Jiu Jitsu Self Defence in 1916 and Physical Culture in 1917. He taught his system to the Army to aid with the war effort.
The edition of Physical culture I found was in pretty good condition considering it is a hundred years old and included the two wall charts.
The system itself is primarily calisthenics in nature, not necessarily the sort of exercises one would associate with calisthenics now, but gives a really interesting insight into the history of physical culture.
Below are the two wall charts.
