Collected together in a unique double DVD set, we are pleased to present a collection of 217 rare, vintage books on the subject of heraldry and heraldic design. These majority of these texts were published in the late 19th and early 20th centuries - although there are also titles dating back as far as the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries - and each book is a scan of the original pages. Also featured are 710 heraldic images (selected from three of the stand-out books in this collection) in high resolution JPEG format
