You have said it! I use their edition of Braun and Schneider for lots of
picture references so I can leave the 19th C edition on the shelf.  Now to
plot my course re Fancy Dress coming from foreign climes...if I should get

last fall and it was going to cost four times the win for the Royal Mail.
Alas-alack! (Did find another one sometime later)
