On our meeting on November 9, in the State Archives in Zagreb we promoted the “zeroth” number of our bulletin »Grb i zastava«. It consists of 16 pages of A4 size, and the members that did not take its copy on the meeting shall soon get it by mail.
From the contents we highlight:
- The HGZD Establishing Assembly
- Who are our elected officers
- Statutes
- HGZD Agenda for the year 2006
- Heraldic Zagreb: Coats of Arms from the Old City Hall (Dubravka Peić Čaldarović)
- Frankapans & Molise (Nenad Labus)
- The Flags of the Kingdom of Norway (Željko Heimer)
- New National Flags in 2006 (Tomislav Šipek)
- Principality of Seborga (Nenad Labus)
- Socialist heraldry? (Željko Heimer)
- Commendatore (Nenad Labus)
- 27th International Congress of Genealogical and Heraldic Studies
We invite all who saw the bulletin, members or not, to let us know on their impressions, comments and critiques. Especially we would like you to let us know what do you think on the name of the bulletin. Beside “Grb i zastava” we are considering two more proposals: “Grbostijeg” amd “Leljiva” – what do you think about these?
Also, write to us what you would like to read there. And of course, if you have an idea for a text of your own, we would gladry consider it… Do not be discouraged, this bulletin is intended for all our members to publish their larger or smaller papers, but also news on herladry and vexillology that they learn or in which they activly participate.
See you in our number 1… some time in spring.
