Help wanted please, with a Chinese periodica: Taiwan Sheng Li Bo Wu Guan Ban Nian Kan

Loedjoe · 11th November 2014, 11:58 AM

The entries for Palitai and Si euli in Wikipedia both give a reference to: Taiwan Sheng Li Bo Wu Guan Ban Nian Kan, Volume 60 (2009) The [Journal of the Taiwan] Museum.
All I have been able to discover about it is that it includes tables with names of various Indonesian weapons, e.g. pp. 75, 86.
Does anyone have access to this periodical, and would he or she be willing to let me know:
name of author
title and page numbers of the article
volume/issue number and date (2009?) of the periodical
any information about the contents of the article would also be most welcome.

I'd be most grateful for any response (for a bibliography on Indonesian weapons) - many thanks, Loedjoe

Buy yourself a copy of Van Zonneveld's " Traditional Weapons of the Indonesian Archipelago" and solve all your problems :-)

Ariel, Tim is working on a comprehensive (if not complete) bibliography on the subject.

Alberts nice treatise is a reasonably comprehensive encyclopedia; a good starting point for any serious collector.

Regards,
Kai

Tim,

Perhaps the University of California can help you as per this link.

Or the Museum directly?

Many thanks for your responses.
Ariel - Van Zonneveld's remarkable book is useful for all sorts of information, but not for this specific enquiry!
Kai- thank you. No bibliography will be as comprehensive as one could wish, but I'm doing my best to try for it.
Gavin - thank you, your response has spurred me on to contact a library or two for help with this. I'm afraid I was trying the lazy way first, in case one of the Forumites just happened to have this article in his or her files.
