The caption to this picture reads, "In 1952, Ndola having completed 20 years a municipality, the Town Council decided to obtain a grant of arms for the town from the Royal College of Arms in London. The college produced a design from which the Patent of Arms was later drawn." (Picture courtesy of Mervyn Blumberg.) |
