Hi Bill,
Allow me to provide you with an answer as close as possible.
1. Yes, it is about 35 pieces but we can see more and then make a virtual selection.
2. My suggestion is that contribution should be as follows:
a. Sword Type
b. Area of provenance
c. Estimated date of making.
In other words, it is a unique occasion to show, (say) a broad spectrum of a
Kris or a
Bolo from the North to the South or vice-versa.
Bearing this in mind, and thinking about it in practical terms, we can only have this known if collectors come forward and email me their pieces with descriptions after they see what exists and what is missing and can be filled

Thank you.
