A roll of arms (or ''armorial'') is a collection of coats of arms, usually consisting of rows of painted pictures of shields, each shield accompanied by the name of the person bearing the arms. A roll may also consist of blazons (verbal descriptions) rather than illustrations. The following is a list of known historical examples of rolls of arms. == 13th century rolls == *''Glover's Roll'' (Museum Add MS 29796 ) is an English roll of arms from c. 1240–1245, as dated by Sir Harris Nicolas,〔Planché, J.R. ''The Pursuivant of Arms; or Heraldry founded upon facts'', London, 1873, pp.31〕 containing 55 coats of arms. The manuscript was made by Robert Glover (d.1588), Somerset Herald, in 1586 from a now-lost roll of arms made during the reign of King Henry III (1216–1272). The arms are not drawn but only blazoned. Planché states it to be the earliest source of heraldic information and was the first to name it after Glover.〔Planché, J.R.
