Got a letter from the B/Lib - it's £12.50 for the three pages so I'll sort it when I get back from Sweden. Should be (or they'd better be) clearer than the...

Somewhere out there, there is a reference to Jean Joseph Renaud and Ernest Regnier training at Tani's dojo in London, that says something like "there were only...
The Bartitsu Compendium is nearing completion, thanks in large part to the sterling Word-wrangling of list member Neil Evans-Bryant. We are now at a lean and...
To James or any other list members who have used the British Library; I will be in London later this month and am hoping to do some intensive research and...
Hi Tony First off, have you got a readers card? No card, no go! They wont let you copy more than 10% of any book or more than 1 chapter, or more than 1 article...
That was meant to be "kept for 3 days", sorry! ... From: Bartitsu_Forum@yahoogroups.com [mailto:Bartitsu_Forum@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of James Sent: 12...
James, ... That will be my first order of business. I've seen the "proof of ID" requirements, etc. on their website - no problem there, but is there a delay ...
Which Longhurst and Tani/Miyake manuals are you going for, Tony? I may have them in my small collection or be able to get them via interlibrary loan at the...
Keith, ... thanks - that's very generous and might save considerable time. Longhurst's "JiuJitsu and Other Methods of Self Defence". Apparently there was one...
Have to check at home, but I may have the Longhurst manual. Definitely don't have the Tani & Miyake, though. Never even seen that one... Perhaps they'd have...
Keith, ... Perhaps. I've had a bit of communication with them - got permission to reprint the 1950 Gunji Koizumi interview with B-W, and am waiting to hear ...
I think I have it. Shall check tonight. -Will Keith Nelson <fish_doc@...> wrote: Have to check at home, but I may have the Longhurst manual. Definitely...
OK, I finally made myself scan in the images for the British Ju-Jitsu Society's: The Art of Ju-Jitsu... files that Ralph graciously sent me. All of the...
Kirk, thanks, very interesting material. We can see a broad technical agreement between the BJJS documents, Uyenishi, Garrud and Sutherland, although the ...
I don't have that Longhurst book (got 2 others...), but know someone who does, so will see what edition they have and get back to you. Will, let me know if...

Will, ... likewise, and without meaning to rush anything, if you could let me knopw ASAP that would be great. I will be in Chicago by Friday night and in ...
Hello all. Tony, I can tell you conclusively that I have Percy Longhurst's "Jiu Jitsu and other Methods of Self Defence" in my personal collection. I have not...
David, ... The best way is a bit time-consuming, but if you can scan the book and get it online then we could all cross-reference etc. to our hearts' content. ...
... I know. You're always kind enough to send copies of whatever you have. :-) ... That would have been great. I think we all understand the pressures of ...
... Yeah. It's a shame that it looks like only these two sections have survived. Though there's nearly a whole section on groundwork, it's hard to say how...
... I've seen once instance where the manual was laid open and digital photos were taken of the pages. I know of another fellow who had the pages scanned by...
