For someone who (according to himself) has retired from doing heraldic emblazonments for anyone except the high nobility of Europe, Jamieson is certainly pushing hard on the notion that real heraldry is only the stuff painted by himself and his cronies.  Wonder how much he’s charging for his registry.

I’m upset that I might not conform to American Heraldic Practice. Would someone on this august board (though apparently NOT august enough for Mr. Jamieson) inform me of the link to the American Heraldic Practice website??

I’m sure Mr. Jamieson will have one of those up on the web shortly.  Until then, I’m afraid Americans will just have to make do with our own amateurish product, http://www.americanheraldry.org/pages/index.php?n=Guide.Guidelines.

In his defense, he does live in the U.S., and our nation has a proud (and albeit a little tainted) history of accepting immigrants.

 

But ... yea ...

Yeah…

 

Other than that, it’s a free country and if there are people that want to spend the cash on this enterprise of his and pay the taxes on it, I say why the hell not? We need all the tax revenue we can get in the US.

 

At least the artwork will be of better quality than some of the other ones out there.
