The power of iron: keris koleksi La Nyalla Mahmud Mattalitti (La Nyalla Academia, [Surabaya], 2011).

Does anyone have information about this book? Does it include other weapons, or just keris? And are all the keris in it Javanese? A brief note about it would be most useful.

Hi Loedjoe,

I just saw the book in Gramedia Jakarta couple weeks ago and manage to have a quick look by permission.
If not mistaken javanese keris, authors own collection and very high quality photo printed.
A little article about keris.

Sold for rp1.5 juta retail price or around to USD $140

Hope the info usefull.

Thanks
