Museum of the Battle of San Martino/Soferino

[waynetcolorado]

I am trying to get a mailing address for the Museo San Martino e Soferino, so far all I have is that they are in the Mantua area.

Ensign miniatures did a series of figures based on post cards, of troops during the Second Italian War of Independence. I have all the figures from this collection (yeah, there still unbuilt), and would like to get these poast cards as uniform quides.

So if their are any Italian folks here that can direct me to a proper address, it would be greatly appreciated.

Also, if someone knows of books, sources on uniforms of the Italian army in the 1849-1866 period, please contact me. I have a wonderful set of plates that my friend Alberto Mussini sent me several years agao, but am trying to find further references.

Thx in advance

Wayne
