Sir Iain Moncrieff of that Ilk

Arms of Sir Rupert Iain Kay Moncreiffe of that Ilk (1919-1985), 11th Baronet of Nova Scotia, Baron of Easter Moncrieffe (of the Minor Barony of the Realm of Scotland), and the chief of his clan; the outstanding historian and genealogist, a long-term officer of arms of the Lyon Court and author (together with Don Pottinger) of the famous «Simple Heraldry: Cheerfully Illustrated» and «Blood Royal», as well as other masterpieces.

For a while Sir Iain served as attaché at the British embassy in Moscow - so the acidly anti-Stalinist cartoon in the "Blood Royal" was inspired by his immediate experience.

The arms contain, inter alia, the famous and unique mantling, formed by oaken leaves-shaped elements veined Or.
