lol. It does have many nice pictures.

What do you mean by "catalogue type books"? There's a bibliography thread around here somewhere that I've been meaning to update and make a "Sticky" for some time. However, the references for dha are sparse, and we tend to get excited about a single photo or passing reference in much larger works.

Incidentally. this dearth of information is exactly what fomented my obsession with dha.

the best single source for dha pictures that I know of in general publication is Punjabhan, Naengnoi, "Silverware in Thailand," ISBN 9748869563. There are some pictures from it on this thread, courtesy of dha investigator extraordinaire Dan Wilke.

And not to beat my own drum, but the largest single collection of dha photos on the web is on my web site The Dha Research Index (I thinK I have more than are in Artzi's archives at Oriental-Arms).

Mark, there is no doubt in my mind that your dha research index is the definitive source of dha information on the internet. I have literally spent hours doing all types of searches for dha/darb related material. And your site and the posts on this forum are where I refer anyone who asks me about dha/darb info.

That being said I still cannot wait for the promised work from You, Andrew and Ian
