When i was a guest at Mr. Van Veenendaal he was busy wrighting these two works.
For the statement in this discussion, when you have an original copy of his work the pictures are good. It was published in a limited edition for a happy few. I know that copys where made that ended on auction sites.
I have a copy of these 2 booklets and find them very useful references in spite of the pics quality (especially the Pamoratlas) and the Dutch language barrier for me. Emile did a thorough work for documenting and classifying the various types of pamor patterns and Balinese hilts so he deserves our congratulations and thanks.
