Theos-Talk Archives (December 2006 Message tt00222)

I have several times searched for a picture of this ring, but 
without results. But I have just sent a mail to The British Museum, 
with inquire of a picture. I don't have any possibilities to 
published it my self on the Web, but maybe some else could be 
interested to do that. I get back with more info when I have.

I have also asked for a catalogue of the objects in their 
collections that are related to Theosophy in general. I'll get back 
to that to.
