These documents contain information on a person's qualification for admission to the Society of Antiquaries of London as a Fellow. Certificates include candidate's name and address, and a number of signatures (five or more) from other Fellows endorsing the candidate for admission to the Society. Endorsing signatories sign the proposals under "Personal Knowledge" of the candidate, or "General Knowledge". Proposals for candidates are submitted by a Fellow, not by the proposed candidate. | |||
Information on a candidate's scholarly qualifications can be found in two sections of the form: "Addition, Profession or Occupation" and "Qualifications". These sections can provide further details on a candidate's academic degree(s), marital status, employment, positions held, areas of expertise, publications. Dates of proposal submission, reading and balloting are also included on the Certificate. Not all information specified here is present on each certificate, the information given can be inconsistently applied. | |||
The Certificates of Candidates for Election are conventionally known as "blue papers" after the colour of the paper they were originally printed on. They have been bound into volumes in chronological order. The volumes are held in the archives of the Society of Antiquaries of London. | |||
