Wars of the Roses flags (Commercial) new pic added 10-04-17
« on: March 19, 2017, 11:29:44 AM »
Hi, after picking up a set of the Heraldic Badges in England and Wales by Siddons I've decided to get stuck in to some flags for the Wars of the Roses.

Hi, this is the first flag in the set I'm completing for Richard Neville Earl of Warwick who was one of the key players in the Wars of the Roses until his demise in 1471. the flag's not quite finished but not too far away. I'm busy working on his heraldic banner at the moment so hopefully this set will be done by the end of the week.  Here's a pic, cheers Pete

Excellent as usual Pete, a suitably Towton-esque backdrop too  ;)

Splendid Pete. Glad you are doing some more of these.
I have your fabric WOTR Yorkist flags and they are lovely. Highly recommend these products.

In fact, here's a picture  :D

Pete,
Your new flag is great.
I do have a question.
I purchased some of your WotR flags off ebay.
I have looked for the Yorkist flag and can't find it.
Can it still be purchased?
Thanks in advance.

Pete,
Thanks for adding your Yorkist flags to Ebay UK.
Just ordered them, plus the one Lancastrian set I missed.
I love your flags.
