Scroll Banners

I loved those scroll banners from the adventure years of American illustration.

I suppose the idea started out with Renaissance heraldry.

These sketches were in my proposal for a National Geographic story on Tim Severin's Ulysses Voyage of Ulysses, a classic subject if there ever was one.
