Heraldic Amusement

[I. Marc Carlson]

While perusing a copy of _An Encyclopaedic Dictionary of Heraldry_
(by Julian Franklyn and John Tanner.  Pergamon Press, 1969) I ran
across the most amusing bit'o'trivia.  Figure 135 (page 93) shows
the arms of a family named Waldeck... Or, and estoile flaming in bend
sable.  Figure 135 is also the example given for the description of
a "Comet".

My wife thought I should pass it along.
