Unusual arms are for example Merzig, which only received arms in 1909 and the Nachtrag shows an eagle for the city. Bühl is shown with three beehives instead of three small shields and for Langenberg, which received arms only in 1929, the arms of the Rheinprovinz are shown.

Three cities are listed each twice, both in the album, as in the appendix. For Nürnberg this is not strange, as the city used two different arms, one shown in the album, the other in the appendix. Unclear is why Allenstein and Neuhaldensleben are included twice with the same arms.
Five cities are listed each twice, both in the album, as in the appendix. For Nürnberg this is not strange, as the city used two different arms, one shown in the album, the other in the appendix. Similarly, Rheydt had received new arms in 1896 and this was corrected in the appendix. Unclear is why Allenstein, Neuhaldensleben and Plauen are included twice with the same arms.


A mistake in the appendix is Ehrendorf, which did not exist at the time in Germany. It is identified as Erbendorf, hence a spelling error.
