Statistics compiled by Ken Reed, 1997
These data come from Mann, James. Wallace Collection Catalogues:
European Arms and Armor. London: The Trustees of the Wallace
Collection, 1962. All the bucklers in the collection are included.
Please note that the Wallace collection was biased towards 16th century
bucklers and to tournament/ornamental bucklers (as with many collectors,
Wallace gravitated towards the beautiful rather than the typical).
Also, two of the bucklers are well out of period; they are included
them for completeness. Dates ending in "0" are approximate.
