18th c. Court Costume Book Now Available

If you're interested in buying the catalog for the 18th century court costume exhibit discussed below (Fastes de Cour), it's now available at the cheapest price here from Amazon.fr. Yes, the interface is all in French, but the layout/buttons are exactly the same as the English language version, so it shouldn't be too hard to figure out -- and you can sign in to your Amazon.com account and it will pull up all your info. (Random site note: adding tags to this post to see if those are useful; if so, I'll eventually go back and tag older entries too.)
