Hi Ben
the author is P. Holstein (a french collector)
The name of book is "Contribution a l'etude des armes orientales" edit in Paris in 1931 (french language!)
This work is divided in two big books:
the first is about description of oriental white weapons (india and indonesia),
the second is about author collection (extraordinary!) and all books are many plates
Even if it was edit in 1931 the quality of plates is really very good.
The book is rather rare (mybe is still possible to find a copy in ebay at good price).
