lion, demi-

Unidentified Stamp

Dimensions:
Crest A demi-lion holding over its sinister shoulder a battleaxe bendwise

Possibilities for Identification:

None of Fairbairn’s crests depict this configuration. Plates 15/4 and 15/5 display demi-lions holding the battleaxe with both paws, while in 16/8 and 16/10 the lions are issuing out of a mural coronet. In plate 16/12 and 16/14 the lions are affronty. The closest is 15/6 in which the battleaxe is held with the right paw.
