 | Coat of Arms for Benbow, a stock form from a commercial firm This is for those who don't like the harpy on the top of the 1621 coat of arms, and would prefer a helmet instead. This is done partially from a commercialized standard perimeter format, where only the interior details are changed for a particular surname. |
