One of the most famous heraldists in France in the mid 20th century was Robert Louis. He designed a numer of arms, but he was famous for his heraldic art of French historical regions, towns and provinces. He wrote a number of books on the different arms of towns in several départements, most French heraldic stamps were based on his drawings and a large number of postcards have been issued.
The postcards have been issued by different companies during the years. Here most postcards with his work are combined.
Besides postcards he also designed many stamps (see the stamps section of the site. He also wrote many books and designed all kinds of other heraldic items, for example the brochure for the floriade in Paris in 1969, and the arms of the Seine departement see below.
