Due to the
successful publication of A
Celebration of Scottish
Heraldry, The Armorial
Register Limited,
publishers of The
International Register of Arms,
is inviting the submission of
digital photographic material
from all armigers of England,
Northern Ireland, Wales
and The Commonwealth who
hold a grant, honorary grant
or devisal of arms from
The College of Arms, London,
for the publication of a fully
illustrated prestigious book
which will be titled A
Celebration of English
Heraldry. The book will be
dedicated to the many practical
ways in which Armigers of today
enjoy and demonstrate their
personal armorial bearings.
Whilst this book will be an armorial,
it is not just an armorial; its
main purpose is to illustrate
the practical usage of armory
by all who have a grant or
devisal from The College.
Wherever you are domiciled, if
your arms are recorded in the College
of Arms you are invited to
submit photographs along with
details of any armorial item you
have made use of be it your
Letters Patent, library
painting, seal matrix, flag,
cutlery, badges, silver and
gold, wood carving, stone and
other engraved items ……… As a
bare minimum we would request
that you illustrate your entry
with an original grant or
devisal of arms (be it
honorary or substantive) or
exemplification document
(we would be happy to blank out
addresses etc if you so wish).
The book will have a similar
layout to A Celebration of
Scottish Heraldry and to give
you a flavour of what A
Celebration of English Heraldry
may consist of
some examples can be found
here. Not only is the
publication a great way to show
the various usage of Heraldry
emanating from the College of
Arms it will also benefit your
favoured heraldic artists and
craftsmen.
Participation in this project is
FREE (although obviously
there will be a cost associated
with the purchase of the actual
book if participants wish to
acquire one). In you require
further information or
assistance please contact The
Armorial Register Ltd.
