A 1654 London edition of four Latin treatises on military science, arms and heraldry by Nicholas Upton, John of Bath and Henry Spelman, printed by Roger Norton for booksellers John Martin and James Allestrye. The engravings show heraldic shields, seals, decorative ornament panels and a mounted knight, and a designer could take from them the crowned shield layouts, seal lettering rings and strapwork borders of seventeenth-century heraldic print.
