Ugh, why didn't I mention that one- that's like the ultimate, I'd never be able to afford that w/out selling a major organ dream harness. Who was the lucky *expletive*? :)
Jon Blair:
I've always been partial to late 14C/early 15C English, but early crusades are great too.
CrossT:
I totally agree Jon, I love 1100 to 1450( at the latest) and those effiges are wonderful examples of Armor within that time frame!! I perfer the first example as I loveeee the 14th ct but the Henry V era was special and great armor came out of it. So I love both

Second hand info, but I've heard it was sold to a private collector in Mexico (or New Mexico?). But the blackening was all removed, and it is not available for public viewing.
And you can't buy one ever again, because MacPherson made it. However, it *is* featured over a number of pages in Dr Tobias Capwell's new English Armor 1400-1450 book, so we can drool over it there.

Alright Gentleman, here is my ideal harness.
