Greetings! I'm resuming my work on 5th century Western Roman civilian impressions. I hope to finish by mid-2010. (Sooner would be nice.)
Now, I am resuming my search for place & period authentic makers and suppliers of common clothing, sandals, belts, hats, bags, personal and household items, tools (cleric, monk, scribe, painter, and stone mason), etc.
With U.S. dollar devaluation, Value Added Tax, overseas shipping costs, less "free" personal funds than I'd like, etc., these things all somewhat limit my buying options. C'est la vie.
I'll resume my efforts with new Google searches, and with this post. I would appreciate fellow RAT members' leads and recommendations on applicable makers, suppliers, email addresses, website links, etc.
Please accept my thanks in advance for your help. Best regards, +r
P.S. For readers' convenience, I put my 5th c. Western Roman civilian kit item on, and moved the 5th century "Romans, Allies, and Enemies" character lists up to the first post in this series. These lists are ad hoc, perpetual drafts in progress.
