I need some help with an upcoming project. I have these photos and some data for a Katzbalger in the collection of the Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden. It's not much to work with, and although the museum does have high-res scans, they have a policy forbidding cooperation on unsanctioned reproduction projects (or, in this case, projects that are merely similar). Lack of other views won't kill my project because it's not meant to be a copy or reproduction. Still, it would be very helpful to see some very basic views--top of the pommel, terminus of knuckle bow, blade, scabbard....If any of you happen to be in Dresden and see this piece on display, I'd be most grateful for any photos, drawings, data and other infomation you can supply. Veilen dank!
