The site is my private site, which is maintained by one person only.

I mainly focus on paper-based items, due to space and shipping costs, but I do collect basically everything with civic arms ! This includes stamps, books, ties, cups, plates, souvenirs, anything actually, as long as the arms are visible. | |||
See the '''[[Heraldic collector's items catalogue]]''' for all collections ! | |||

I do not restrict myself to any country, but, obviously, I have most things from Holland as I am based there. | I do not restrict myself to any country, but, obviously, I have most things from Holland as I am based there. | ||
All items will be part of the foundation Heraldry of the World and (hopefully) will become part of a future heraldic museum of exhibition(s). | |||

I also would like to have pictures (photographs) of the use of the arms in the town or municipality, such as on street signs, on plaques, on the city hall etc. I will add these to my site and I will contribute the picture to the sender. Similarly I would like to get official municipal letterheads and stationery with heraldry. | |||
If you have anything to offer or to donate, or when it can be send electronically, I will welcome it ! | |||
