Sita, other than it is a Finnish publication.... and apparently differing dates for publication, a search  did throw up the following page on aurinkopullo:

Marcus, thank you for the information, perhaps it concerns a reprint. Unfortunately I don't speak Finnish and I just want to know if this book is worthwhile to buy for a collector of Scandinavian glass. I think it is not only a publication about the famous 'Aurinkopullo' of Helena Tynell but also on other subjects like ceramics and others.

Another question, where did you buy the catalog: 'The Finnish Glass museum European glass in use' (exhibition 1994)?

Thanks & regards,
Sita

Thank you again. You're right, perfect service and the best address to buy these publications (high time to plan a trip to Finland).

Kind regards,
Sita
