Hello, I am wondering if I could contact anyone who has worked with puppet collections. I am working on my Master's project and am interested in the issues of care and handling of performance objects, such as the Indonesian rod puppets. I would appreciate hearing from anyone who like to share their thoughts on the subject matter. Some of the questions I have would include reason for collecting the puppets, how often the collections are used, and any problems or challenges faced when caring for them. As always, any feedback is appreciated. I'm also happy to discuss the subject off-list. Many thanks in advance!
