Map, card jigsaw puzzle, Heraldic Scroll of England and
Wales, with and civic and family coats of arms, drawn by
Dick Kelly, made by Mullins of London, London, about 1973.
The map of England and Wales has county boundaries in
purple, with the county arms colouring the county area; the
counties seem mostly to be the traditional counties before
the re-organisation of 1974, with some of the post 1974
boundaries added, Sussex and Yorkshire are broken up for
example, from the date of the drawing I would guess that the
boundaries are those proposed as at 1973, not those used in
1974; round the outside are family coats of arms taken from
Burke's Armory, only the most common names are shown
The blazons of the counties which are now all or part in
Cumbria are:-
Westmorland - argent two bars gules over all an apple tree
with seven branches fructed and eradicated or
Cumberland - per fess vert and barry wavy of six argent and
azure in chief three parnassus flowers proper
Lancashire - gules three piles two issuant from the chief
and one in base or each charged with a rose gules barbed and
seeded proper
Yorkshire, West Riding - ermine a sun or charged with a rose
argent, on a chief gules three roses argent (?)
