Dear ARLIS-L,
Reading about the looting of The National Museum of Iraq over the weekend I began to wonder if a catalog of its collections had ever been published at any point in its history.  A search of WoCat using the authorized name of the museum (Mat haf al-Iraqi) doesn't bring up anything.  An article in the Sun. NYTimes, "Pillagers Strip Iraqi Museum of its Treasure," refers to the exhibition catalog, "Silk Road Civilizations" (held in Nara, Japan in 1988) in which items from the museum were featured.
Does anyone out there know of anything else?
Thank you,
Kay Streng
