Norges gamle vaaben, farver og flag
A scholarly survey of Norway's medieval coats of arms, colours and flags, written by the historian Gustav Storm and published in Kristiania in 1894 for the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters. The plates are fine outline drawings of wax seals and shields, showing Lombardic and Gothic Latin legends running round chipped, irregular rims, lions, crowns and architectural canopies — a source of letterforms, seal outlines and heraldic charges drawn in flat, traceable line.
