A few pictures from the London Park Lane Arms Fair
I had the pleasure of going to the 2012 Park Lane Arms fair with Peter Johnsson to show a few Albion Swords - and just wanted to share a couple of pictures from the fair. Thank you very much to all who visited our table :-)

Nice photos. Is that Toby Capwell in the first one?
I love that Peter used pommels as paperweights! :lol:

Fantastic photos from what looks like a wonderful event. I really REALLY want to read that article on geometric proportions in sword design--is there a way it will be available to purchase or read on-line?

Thanks for sharing these pics!
Oh, to live on this side of the puddle. . . :cry:
I'll be in London soon, is there a place where I can get Peter's article there?
Is it reasonable to say that with the work he does and the knowledge he has that Peter will one day be recognised for his contribution to our modern understanding of swords in much the same way that Ewart Oakeshott now is.
This years catalogue (as well as earlier catalogues ... and there are a lot with great articles.... can be ordered through: http://www.londonarmsfair.com/catalogue.html
