This is only a small sample, you should see what is in the stores.

Well, for my next trip to London...Thanks for the pics.
Last year I go to the Haly Fair, good place for textiles and some Tribal Art, in London.
Last week-end I was in the Quai Branly museum in Paris to see the exhibit on the New Ireland, very good mask and statues from PPNG.Something to see...

Here's a postcard I found amongst the ones I have. I mainly interested in postcards if they show pics of warriors (especially from Africa).

This picture was taken at the Royal Museum for Central Africa in Tervueren (Belgium). Even now the displays at that museum are 'old fashioned', but they show a lot of tribal art (weapons included).

This showcase is filled with Songye (Nsapo-nsapo) axes and Kuba knives.
