Seated Drapery vs No Drapery coins - do you have close-up pictures of the difference?

I'm trying to find a seated quarter and half dollar w/o drapery. Looking at pictures of raw coins on ebay, I can't tell if a coin has or does not have Drapery (and many times the sellers can't tell me either). I know there's an extra drapery fold in the bend of the arm......does anyone have some close-up's that clearly show the difference?
Unfortunately, dates aren't too much of a help - my understanding is:
Quarter: 1839-P comes both with and without drapery, 1839-O is only with out Drapery.
Half: 1839-P and O are both without Drapery, 1840-P and O come both with and without Drapery.
Any and all help most appreciated.
