As the public image of The Augustan Society, Inc., is an important asset, it is appropriate to create a Brand Style Guide to specify the public image that will be presented to the world, including particularly the use of the Society's arms, badge, and other insignia and logos.

  1. Arms—The full arms of the Society are to be used on official documents, such as certificates, and on any document that has been approved by the Board of Directors.
  2. Shield—The shield of the full arms of the Society are to be used on documents published by the Society that are official in nature, but which have not specifically been authorized by the Board, such as letterhead.
  3. Badge—The badge of the Society is to be used on the cover and masthead of periodicals published by the Society, and on new editions of periodicals published by other groups who have been given to the Society. This applies to reprints, and to issues that predate this Style Guide.
  4. Sub-Groups
    1. Order of the Augustan Eagle—The full Arms of the OAE are used on documents that have been approved by the Eagle Council or the Chief of the Order acting alone. The Shield of the OAE is to be used in official, but less important ways, such as stationery. The Badge of the OAE is to be used as insignia, and as an abbreviated logo when a full shield would not be suitable.
    2. Noble Company of the rose—The full Arms of the NCR are used on documents that have been approved by the Rose Council or the Magister Rosae acting alone. The Shield of the NCR is to be used in official, but less important ways, such as stationery.
