ACOR 8 Turkmen Exhibit now online

All,

The NERS has just made available an online version of the ACOR 8 exihibit entitled "Rare and Unusual Turkmen Pile Weavings". You can reach it from the Gallery page of the NERS website. I used the same format as the previous NERS online exhibits. All the images can be seen in a larger scale by clicking on the image presented in each exhibit plate. Thanks to Yon Bard and Jim Adelson for providing all the materials used to create the online exhibit.

Regards,

Bob

For a larger, more detailed image, follow this link.

Regards, and thanks again.
