Goodevening, :winke:

In first place my apologizes that I'm writing in English, althoug I read German more or less, I'll not write it very well.   :besorgt: Hereby I 'll show you a cloth seal (Plombe) from Amersfoort (Holland). In the 17th century Amersfoort was one of the biggest producers of bombazine. This seal dates from around 1700.

P.s. Does somebody of you know some interesting sites about cloth seals (Plomben) from Augsburg en Bremen. I'm active as moderator seals (plomben) at a Dutch site on which also some German seals are shown. If you know some sites about the textile industry of those cities, you're al so welcome. :super:
