Asian Textiles, OATG newsletter - back issues

Individual copies of the current edition of Asian Textiles, the newsletter of the Oxford Asian Textile Group, or still available back issues may be purchased at a cost of £2 (or 4 Euros) each and are currently held by the OATG Membership Secretary, The Old Vicarage, Asthall, Burford, OX18 4HW, UK. Payment may be made by Sterling cheque drawn on a UK bank; a Euro cheque drawn on a EU bank or, if you do not have a Sterling or Euro bank account you may make payment via PayPal. At the present time OATG will only accept payments via PayPal from those without Sterling accounts. If you live outside the UK please check for additional postage costs before sending your payment by sending a message to back issues and also if you wish to pay via Acceptance Mark.

Regrettably there are no remaining back issues of some of the earlier OATG newsletters. If there is a news item in which you are particularly interested it may be possible to provide a photocopy. Charges would include packing, postage and photocopying. It is hoped in due course to be able to provide access via this website to pdf versions of the out-of-print newsletters. Please send a message to back issues for further details.
