Full scrolls.
Clare, it has been my experience in Ansteorra that most charters were
being recognized for the colorist -- if this has been discontinued, I
understand that court length would be a serious reason why.
Full "one-of-a-kind" scrolls do deserve better recognition -- and care
-- than they sometimes receive...
