Again, I can recommend Anne Kløvnes Høidal's book, Bunads in America. PP. 110-116 contain descriptions and pictures of several old bunads from Hallingdal. Other chapters have descriptions and illustrations of parts of old bunads. You could also contact the organization Ladies of Valhall, 5740 Lance Street, San Diego, CA 92120, USA for assistance.
