I've been there before, but I'll have to go again and I certainly will look that up. I'll see about getting pics too, but they usually have serious flash photography restrictions.

Cheers!

When will you be going. The Met has a great selection of photos for sale, usually in postcard form.

The MET is a very good museum and its a shame that you aren't allowed to take pictures. But it should be very interesting. I like this kind of stuff. Well, if anyone does go, enjoy.

Technically they dont allow flash, but otherwise it seems to be on an exhibit by exhibit basis. I've taken pictures of the armor before, but this was several years ago so I dont know if they've changed things.

Definetly will be checking this one out in the next month.

If anyone wants to meet up in the city, on a Tue, Wed, or Thur when its on, for lunch and a go at the exhibit, send a PM and we can coordinate.
