We present historical VLA and Jansky Very Large Array multi-frequency multi-array radio continuum imaging of a unique sample of 100 radio sources that have been selected on the basis of low axial ratios. These observations allow us the opportunity to study radio sources with synchrotron plasma that is significantly offset from the main radio axis and therefore open a window into investigations of physical mechanisms responsible for depositing the plasma in off-axis regions. These images are discussed in detail in subsequent papers in this series (Saripalli & Roberts 2017; Roberts & Saripalli 2017).
