Dear list colleagues,

I wonder whether any participant in this list has an original example of

Security in Byzantium: Locking, Sealing, and Weighing. Dumbarton Oaks
Byzantine Collection Publications No. 2. Washington, DC, 1980. By Gary
Viken and John Nesbitt. 39 pp.

Recently a visitor showed me a photocopy, and the ANS library has another
photocopy. It is a brief catalogue of an exhibition, with lots of
illustrations of interesting objects: weights, balances, and illustrations
of their use. I'd like very much to see an original, since the photocopy
does not reproduce the images clearly.

If someone has an example, it seems like a great gift for the ANS library.
