*feeling my ignorance here*

How does one 'get a catalogue'? I have an amazing ILL access here at FCC if one could direct me on what information will allow my librarian to locate this resource...

On that page, upper left hand corner, is the instructions on ordering the catalog. But here is what's there.

Riggisberger Berichte, Volume 15
Kölner Patrizier- und Bürgerkleidung des 17. Jahrhunderts.
Die Kostümsammlung Hüpsch im Hessischen Landesmuseum Darmstadt
Johannes Pietsch and Karen Stolleis with a contribution by Nadine Piechatschek.
416 pages, 382 ill., 24,5 x 31 cm, 2008
German text with English translation of the main chapters
ISBN 978-3-905014-35-8
CHF 85.-- + postage; CHF 50.-- at the exhibition

And if you can ILL it, I would love to look at it, pretty please!

Sorry, upper left hand corner has the button "catalog" to the instructions to order the thing.

You know I will share!

BTW - Todd needs my assistance tonight with hat patterning so I will not be able to make it over to the shop for lucet/fingerloop work. However, I should be able to come next week and I believe I will have my hubby's completed Waffenrock with me!

Some more views of his coat including one where it is laid flat and is a circle (probably eased or pleated at the shoulders for those very round folds).

Thank you very much! I wasn't able to figure out how to get there before (I know French decently, not German).

I am hoping the catalog explains something about those pleats. Shoulder yoke? No yoke? How pleated? etc.

Note to self: Catalog can be found on this page now.
