The Armorial Bearings of the Guilds of London, by John Bromley and Heather Child (Warner Books HB 1960 - subsequently reprinted)
			his book has the complete heraldry of the London guilds, with beautiful color plates of their crests and seals. The text is very well written and interesting, including brief histories of the guilds and some details about how and where the crafts were pursued. The illustrations of the guilds' heraldry are beautiful and will provide plenty of material for artists who are looking for sources. (I find the basketmakers' heraldry, with the simple motto "Love One Another," to be quite touching). -back to the bookliste-
