Drawings published by the heraldist carl wenzel, subtitled "development of the coat of arms of the city of hanover". Shown are the various coats of arms since the middle ages with the lion as a symbol for the guelph sovereigns and the development and insertion of the cloverleaf in the open city gate with two towers (double battlements). The illustrations appeared in the middle of the second world war in 1942 in volume 1 of the publication "hanover. Image, development and significance of the lower saxony capital. On the 700th anniversary of the city of hanover" as the yearbook of the geographical society of hanover for 1940/41.
