Summary

Description

Adventure author James Plamondon photographed with his hand-and-a-half "bastard" sword produced by Wilkinson Sword of London. Plamondon had the sword engraved with the Latin phrase Hic Gladius Contra Tyrannia ("This sword against tyranny") and the year, 1978. (He notes that at $5 per letter, adding the year in Roman numerals would have been too costly.) The photo was taken with his mother's Polaroid SX-70 instant camera.
