Got this from Nigel Walton of Conquest:

quote:
If anyone sees the following or similar items for sale can they
please contact me regarding this matter asap! 07788 511419

Fourth Armoury Riveted Hauberk and Coif (Full sleeved with separate
coif. Mail is 50% solid rings and 50% riveted.) If any of you have
seen this style of mail it is very light and very fine compared with
a lot of riveted mail that is about and the rings are very flat.

Spring Steel wire hauberk, same as the above. Full sleeved with
separate coif, the rings are 8mm external and quite ridged.

Both hauberks are very tailored to fit me, including darts on the
shoulders, elbows, back and hip point for fitting. I am five eleven
and 290 lbs so you can gauge the size hauberk that fits me, or rather
did.

Also missing is a large, single piece medieval cauldron (hand beaten
from a single sheet of metal) about two and a half feet across.

Also missing are a couple of Norman style swords (Armour class),
helmets, soft kit and gambesons all in my size. One pair Morgan
Hubbard black size 9.5 Norman style shoes and several hand carved
belts with medieval patterns on them and extensive `blue' fittings.

If you see any one suddenly selling this stuff, please let me know –
there is a cash reward for ANY information that leads me to whoever
stole this kit. The place it was taken from was a secured garage in
North Bristol.

To add insult to injury after taking these items from my garage the
thief's then set fire to it destroying all of the rest of the
contents worth about 58K from our initial estimation. As I said
before I will pay serious cash for the name of the person responsible
for this act.


If anyone is offered kit or sees anything like this for sale on Ebay or elsewhere could they please contact me ASAP

Do they have photos? This would be helpful to the web set. So that if they are cruising Ebay and such, they have a better chance to ID it.
