Biographical Note

The full-page introductory monogram, combined with a prominent one later, suggest that this album is the work of, or belonged to, one A.C. Johnson.


Scope and Content Note

One leather-bound volume with 48 pages of printed crests mounted onto hand-painted geometric, floral, and military designs. Themes of the crests include royalty, military regiments, girls' names, animals, insects, shields, Latin mottos, castles, initials, and identified English clubs, hotels, museums, and colleges.

The overall appearance suggests a production date in the late 19th century or early 20th century, but no specific date can be given.
