I think that "provenace" is actually spelled "provenance."
Pages 6 and 76 also have a lot of great thoughts and information on this subject. An issue of BAR is expensive, in my opinion, if you buy it at a newsstand (sp?). If it's _too_ expensive for you, you can find it at the larger libraries (don't forget college libraries, where you can read them in those places, but not check them out (unless you are a student or whatever)).
