Hi, I found this listing for a book which may interest you, it has finished, but, it is a @buy it now' price, and was not sold ,so should not be a problem just e-mail him.

A QUOTE FROM THE LISTING

'In this book you'll find two reprinted articles about Dayak art.

the first is " Malerei und technische kunste bei den Dayaks"

from von Alois Raimund Hein. This article is almost the same ( his pre-study) as his famous book ( whats extremely expensive!) "die bilden kunsten bei den Dayaks auf Borneo"

it handles mainly about Dayak shields.

the second article is a very rare article about indonesian sword grips with lots of beautifull drawings!

"Indonesische schwertgriffe" von W.Hein

book is written in German.

151 pages soft cover date of reprint unknown.

this book is an important work on mandaus and other indonesian swords.

more that 300 razorsharp drawings! of keris,madau,kampilan,

shields,nias swords,atjeh,dayak art.
