I didn't know you were royalty RB, where does one find a 376 (give or take) year old deed?
The 1st one is, as usual, awesome but there are some nagging questions:
1) What would it look like in black and white
2) Have you bee hanging out with a guy named Marty McFly.

One of the few I acquired at an auction... I used to be a pretty big contributor to Wikepedia... I have a love of historical items... If you look up vellum on there you will see this deed....
Marty and I go way back....

Isn't it ironic the we don't seem to give a rats behind for history when it's being force-fed by boring individuals who seem to be more interested in earning a paycheck than teaching. I graduated high school at 17 and it took years to undo the 2 years of apathetic teachers in the public school system.
Now I marvel at the ability of people that are hundreds or thousands of years dead to make me feel completely stupid. The Romans and Mayans, to name just two, had it going on!

I love learning about things as long as they are not force fed... :)

Nice work, as always Randy. The second one is reminiscent of the lithographs done here back in the 40s and 50s to promote the cherry industry.

Nice one's Randy, your shots are always interesting as well as great to look at. I wonder if that house the deeds covered is still there, as Coventry was just about flattened by the Luftwaffe in 1940

Wonderful texture in both pictures, both simple but impacting, Good set Randy
