Journals of the House of Burgesses of Virginia
Journals of the House of Burgesses of Virginia is an official legislative record of the Virginia colonial assembly, edited by H. R. McIlwaine and John Pendleton Kennedy and published in Richmond by the Virginia State Library, covering proceedings from 1619. The two pictures are circular seals: a British royal coat of arms with lion, unicorn and crown bearing the legend of George II, and a Virginia province seal showing a standing governor-like figure receiving a kneeling Native American man beneath the words Virginia America. A designer might take heraldic roundel layouts, ribbon legends set around a circle, and the formal emblem style of colonial seals.
