You're welcome, Wolviex.
And there is also:
M. Gradowski, Z. Zygulski, Slownik uzbrojenia historycznego [A Dictionary of historical armour], Warsaw 1998
I believe the Jagiellonian Library is great; possibly its staff ignores books published in Warsaw? It's a joke of course. I suppose that some of them are still available at the Asia and Pacific Museum's shop
Greetings

My God!
I always knew Poles were somewhat crazy about military matters of the things past (at least most of my Polish friends are), but I never realized that Poland is a world center of academic research on old arms and armour!
It's almost like household electronics: everything was made in Taiwan.
My hat is off to you, guys!
