Bazza Posted February 17, 2023 Report Posted February 17, 2023 Ffolke, I was looking for something specific and stumbled on this old catalogue and (maybe useful) website to explore further: CATALOGUE THE JAPkNESE SWORD AND ITS FITTINGS From the collections of the members of the Japanese Sword Society of N.Y. The Cooper Union Museum March 26 though May 28, 1966 It can be downloaded from this website: https://vdocuments.mx/download/the-Japanese-sword-and-its-fittings-from-the-collections.html BaZZa. 7 2 Quote
Kiipu Posted February 19, 2023 Report Posted February 19, 2023 In the spirit of one-upmanship, try beating that BaZZa! https://library.si.edu/digital-library/book/japaneseswordits00coop or The Japanese sword and its fittings 3 2 Quote
Bazza Posted February 19, 2023 Author Report Posted February 19, 2023 Good one Thomas. The shock for me is seeing the cover I think I have a copy somewhere in my too-voluminous holdings. Browsing I see an Echizen Nobuyoshi - I have one - and other nice things. Thanks for the follow-up one-up!! BaZZa. 1 Quote
Kiipu Posted February 19, 2023 Report Posted February 19, 2023 Did BaZZa say old guns? Well then, how about this! Start at page 66 for the Japanese matchlocks. A.E. Brooks's Collection of Antique Guns 1 1 1 Quote
