b.hennick Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 I too am travelling from Toronto Ontario to the Met. I will be at the symposium as well as the exhibit. I found a good deal on a hotel in Newark. Using Hotwire I was able to get a 3.5 star hotel (Hilton Newark airport) for $59 per night. Quote
jrs Posted October 23, 2009 Author Report Posted October 23, 2009 I plan on being at the museum most of the day on Friday, Nov. 13th. Quote
Ford Hallam Posted October 24, 2009 Report Posted October 24, 2009 If you're in the UK it's cheaper, quicker and easier, to get it fromAmazon.co.uk Quote
Grey Doffin Posted November 9, 2009 Report Posted November 9, 2009 The book is both hard and soft bound. The Met's price for the hardbound edition is $65; lower online prices might be for the softbound edition. Grey Quote
