John Gullim Display of Heraldrie - 3rd Edition




I managed to find a copy of the Title Page of the 3rd edition - published in 1638.


The more I find on this book, the more it fascinates me.
The first edition had a grandiose cover - as per the below post.
By the 3rd edition the cover was just plain text with no pictures.
By the last edition (the second 6th edition - 1724 - see below post) the cover was still plain text, but at least had a bit more colour.










Also found a sample page from the 3rd edition as well.
