Here are some interesting volumes I recently found on the web, which may
interest some of you:

1.Brasseur de Bourbourg: "Manuscrit Troano : études sur le système graphique
et la langue des Mayas (Volumes 1&2)" 
http://www.archive.org/details/manuscrittroano01bras
and
http://www.archive.org/details/manuscrittroano02bras

Volume 1 has plates of each page of the Troano, done chromolithographically.
They are given after page 244.  Plate XXIII-Plate VI (in descending order)
appear out of place--even for the presently unused order that Brasseur was
apparently using.  They appear later than expected, and between Plates XIX*
and XVIII*.

The rest of the volumes have Brasseur's thoughts on the Troano--of historical
interest.


1.  A very good copy of Cyrus Thomas'"A Study of the Manuscript Troano", 1882.
