The International String Figure Association maintains a wonderful online bibliography, maintained by Dr. Tom Storer. An unabridged version is available for purchase. Portions of the online bibliography have been annotated by Richard Ratajczak.
Membership in this organization is a gift as the materials produced during the year are worth more than the annual membership fee of $25.00 (USA) $35 (International). By arrangement with Mark A. Sherman, Editor, we direct you to their web site and ask that when you join that you mention the referral from this site.
As a member of ISFA you'll receive Bulletin of the International String Figure Association (ISSN 1076-7886), the 300-page journal published annually (September); String Figure Magazine (ISSN 1087-1527), a light-hearted, quarterly publication (March, June, September, December) featuring step-by-step, lavishly illustrated instructions for making both traditional and modern designs; and ISFA News, the semi-annual newsletter (March, September). You'll also gain access to the String Figure Bibliography, a reference work that includes over 1300 citations, and back-issues of the former series entitled Bulletin of String Figures Association. Members also receive the names and addresses of fellow string figure enthusiasts.
