About this book

On July 4, 1776, the Continental Congress named Franklin, Adams and Jefferson to design a seal for the United States, and this 1909 State Department publication traces what followed. Gaillard Hunt gives a chapter each to the first device, the Lovell committee, William Barton's designs, the Secretary's device and the adoption of the arms, then to the third and fourth seals and the uses of the seal. The text grows from a shorter sketch he prepared in 1892, and it ends with a glossary of heraldic terms.
