This series deals with the arms of the London Livery Companies (incorporated trading companies), whose arms were registered at the College of Arms. Most companies date from medieval times, but their arms are from more recent origin. Many of the trades described do no longer exist. Unless stated, all companies were based in London. Card number 50, Hudson Bay Company, also appears in the [[Wills's - Arms of the British Empire (small)|Coat of arms of the British Empire Series]]. | This series deals with the arms of the London Livery Companies (incorporated trading companies), whose arms were registered at the College of Arms.
