Although once considered the arms of the Company of Makers of Playing Cards, it is now considered not to be the case. Research by the late Frank Britton suggests that the initials are for William Wythe and Mary Judge who were married at All-Hallows-on-the-Wall in the City of London 1673, yet there is no apparent connection between their names and the arms here represented.
