Hello,

I am currently working on identifying about 40 university shields, coat of arms, crests and or insignias for a historical project at the Mayo Clinic and Foundation in Rochester, MN. We are a medical institution, therefore, these unidentified shield were from physicians alma mater in approximately the 1940’s.

I was wondering if you have information on how I can go about identifying these shields, coat of arms, crests and or insignias? Does your organization have lists of these items? I would appreciate any assistance or ideas of how to go about this project.

 

Thank you. Paula Alberts, Mayo Foundation

Why not post pictures of these insignia here?

I love a challenge, and I suspect there are others here who do as well.
