Paper and printing quality are similar, but Haryono's book have better photography, graphics and artwork.

Scratch this. I got it after a couple of tries.

Thanks

Yeah Mick, you're right:- the quality of production of Keris Lombok is less than good. However, it was obviously done on a shoe-string budget, and there is some good info in it. All things considered I personally am not prepared to criticise Keris Lombok too severely for failing to be an artwork in itself.
