This occurs in cases in which it has been thought unnecessary to care cute new engravings for trivial di¿'erences, or deficiencies, which the imagination can readily supply but, in general, where the crest and its blazonry do not perfectly agree, the di¿'erenee is marked in the description in a parenthesis, or by italic letters.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
