Coat of arms 17th century Wall and Thomas - stock illustration

This image is from a copperplate engraving, and shows part of a 'roll of arms' from Richard Blome's (Britannia), an atlas published in 1673. It features the coats of arms of people who contributed towards the completion of the work – starting with King Charles II. Each page includes 35 coats of arms, presented here in pairs. These two coats of arms are from folio (page) 9 of the work. In old English, an 's' appeared as a 'long s' (which looks like an 'f'), while 'ss' appeared as 'fs'. 'Com' was an abbreviation for 'County'. A number is assigned to each benefactor. Here are the accompanying texts (followed by modernised English where appropriate): 273 Mr. Thomas WALL of ye Citty of Briftoll Bookfeller (Bristol, bookseller) 274 Ieffrey THOMAS of ye Citty of London of Highgate in Midds & of (blank) in Kent Efq (Jeffrey Thomas; Middlesex) More from the same coat-of-arms series (many more via blue link): .
