Don't know what part of the country you are in but Powells in
Portland has a hugh selection of used and hard to find books.
It is the biggest bookstore I have found. They are on the net just
search for Powells Books ( my bookmarks are down8^(( ) or I would
give you the e-mail. I have found alot of books there..especially
period books.

Dear Donna H.,
Thanks for the used bookstore suggestion. Sorry I wasn't
clear, but
that's what I meant by "old/used/hard-to-find sources". We are
fortunate to have several Half Price Bookstores which deal mostly in
used books and that's the only place I've seen a Sibmacher (other than
on friends bookshelves). In fact I stay on the lookout for more
copies as I have other friends who want a copy, too. There are also
several businesses i.e. Bette Feinstein, Ruth Kern, Studio Books, etc.
who deal in pre-owned needlework books and I try to stay on their
catalog mailing lists. I also hit the twice a year Book & Paper shows
and the public library sales; all good sources. That's what I meant
by "tracking down period material is time consuming" and I thoroughly
enjoy doing it. pkf (Paula F.)
