			Hi everyone, 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	I actually found out, that the book from which Michael gets some of his wonderful illustrations pf cannons is now availible as a faksimile reproduction. Ulrich Beßnitzer. Zeughausinventar von Landshut, 1485. It is not cheap but maybe someone like to have it as a hardcopy. It is 22,8 to 30,5 cm, has 126 pages of text and 120 pages of pictures You can find it for example under this link, click on the book to see two pages of it. http://www.froelichundkaufmann.de/in...ventar&x=0&y=0 best from Dirk  |

			Hi Dirk, 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
			Thanks for bringing that manuscript still widely unkown to attention once more. Please also see my thread of 18 September 2008: http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...huter+zeughaus Landshut is the capital of Lower Bavaria, just some 60 kilometers from Abensberg, the town where I live. Free download of the complete book in PDF from: http://digi.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/dig...95&ui_lang=eng Best, Michael Trömner Last edited by Matchlock; 2nd December 2014 at 01:36 PM.  |
