[MR] Fw: apologies to Heralds-note to scribes

[Lora Franks]

  As the current Clerk Signet I can tell you that I do not always have 
the name of the scribe.  This is especially so if I am using a scroll 
blank that is not marked.  Please sign your scrolls in pencil behind the 
illumination on the back of the scroll.  If you are willing, add an 
e-mail address.  Many recipients like to say thank you to the scribe.

In addition to a printed text for the heralds I would like to suggest 
"frameable" sizes for the scrolls.  It is not always feasible for people 
to get their scroll custom framed.  If the scroll is a standard frame 
size (8X10, 10X13, 11X14, 5X7 etc) then the recipient may have an easier 
time displaying your beautiful work.   9X12 can be matted to a 10X13 or 
11X14 so it works as well.  These sizes will also help those of us who 
transport your scrolls (heralds included) because many court portfolios 
often don't hold sizes like 11X17 or larger without risking damage to 
the edges of the scrolls.

Also, if anyone is interested in being lead scribe for an upcoming  
Royal progress event (coordinating receiving scrolls, adding dates and 
occasionally promissory names) please contact me off list.
