Hi Kai as you now pakayuns are rare and in this condition very hard to find

Ben

Dajak, I've made it a point to view all your facinating posts particularly pertaining to Borneon stuffs. Certainly a rare find as for your other pakayuns etc. David McCredie and G C Wolley, both former curators for the Sabah Museum were known for their large collections and to have brought some stuffs over to London and I wonder if some pakayuns were amongst them. However a large part of Wolley's collection formed the "foundation collection" of the incipient Sabah museum and McCredie was said to have traded off much of his.

Hi John do they have pics off their collections


Ben

Thanks John you are a great help and You have some nice pakayuns yourself
