Initially the series were intended to be issued as loose sheets, to be bound in albums per (historical) region.Therefore initially the album sheets with the arms and description of the region were issued. This was to be followed by one sheet with the nine most important cities of each province (chefs-lieux de département) within the region (each region consists of one or more provinces). Finally per province all municipal arms were to be published. However, this scheme was never completed. For each province a page with the provincial arms was issued. Later also for each département a page with the nine main towns was issued, but only of the Alsace region all arms were published. | |||
In total there were 40 different albums planned, but only 6 were actually issued. | In total there were 40 different albums planned, but only 6 were actually issued. |
