ARMS/DEVICES APPROVED BY THE

COLLEGE OF HERALDS OF THE WEST

As a service to members of the Society everywhere, the College of Heralds of the West transmits to the Editors of Tournaments Illuminated a list of the applications for registration of a personal device or of arms that it has accepted at its monthly meeting.

The purpose of the publication of these lists is twofold. First, members of the Society will be able to have some idea of the kinds of devices that are found acceptable, & hence will be able to avoid the unacceptable in drawing up their own applications. (A later article in T.I. will go into this in some detail.)

Second, members of the Society will be able to avoid unintentional duplication of already registered arms/devices and the consequent delay, additional expense, and so on, involved in resubmitting an application.

The Colleges of Heralds of the other kingdoms of the Society are invited also to contribute lists of the devices and arms they have approved, in order that the information available to Society members everywhere be as complete as possible.

a list of the arms/devices approved by the College of Heralds of the West at its meeting of 18 October 1970 follows. They are broken down geographically, and, of course, include only such areas as come within the jurisdiction of the Crown of the West.

NOTES TO THE BLAZONS

* A "fountain," in traditional heraldry, is a roundel barry wavy argent and azure, representing a spring, pond, lake, etc.

** A mermaid is conventionally shown (unless otherwise specified in the blazon) as holding a mirror in one hand, into which she is looking, and a comb in the other, with which she is combing her hair. The term "Mermaid in her vanity" has been adopted to represent this convention.
