Hope that helps. Perhpas we should stay in only one thread, what do you say?

Like I said, we must see what collectors have to make a choice, the older the better. That means showing what they are willing to contribute.

Mark:
It was me who mentioned the materials and shields. The idea was to provide a cultural perspective in which the culture of the swords serves as a background. I don't think it needs to be a martial perspective.
But I would suggest we concentrate on weapons as first priority and on the cultural background on the second priority. But it does not mean you should refrain from sending them.

Copyright. We at the Museum can ask for the copyright on everyone's behalf if a photo, email and publishing house address is provided to us along with the book title, ISBN and page number. This will be a better way.

Best regards,
Logging off for now.

I would suggest getting in touch with :
THE NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC MAGAZINE

They have on microfilm a copy of :
Volume 24 XXIV Number 11
November 1913

This issue has an article which covers most of the main tribes with pictures of each .

The article is :
THE NON CHRISTIAN PEOPLES OF THE PHILIPPINE ISLANDS

This is available as a CD ROM set called THE COMPLETE NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC ; pictures can be downloaded and printed from a registered copy of this set.

Hope this helps .
