Hello, I am a long time lurker, just created an account :).

I am in the UK and trying to get a copy of the 2nd edition of the catalog. The postage to the UK is expensive (and there is potential for import fees on top of that), so I am interested in alternatives!

Olwe, how might you be able to help?

In case anybody in Europe still needs one of the paperback copies - I might be able to help with this.

I'm interested - how can you help?

Well, rather simply by the fact that I still have a copy or two of the paperback (2nd ed) of the catalogue to sell; I took some home with me when I visited the exhibition, knowing that you would have to pay about the same amount of money for postage as the thing itself costs

And if someone in Germany and/or Europe would need a copy I'd be able to help. The UK might be a ****** 'coz Brexit but it'd still be cheaper than ordering from the States.

Can someone tell me about the print of the river that was for sale in the top picture?

It’s the Bodleian print you can still order here.

Very interesting, as always to listen to or read Bill's experiences of the archives. Thanks Trotter.

Pay someone to research at Marquette, that sounds interesting. Maybe we could hire Urulókë to research for us there? What are your rates Urulókë? 😁

I'm willing to pay for the opportunity myself... for a brief amount of time... if I could get free...
