A large collection of mon are displayed here; but little to no information is given in English. The Japanese kanji next to the mon are also of little help as they are descriptive such as "seven yabane in a wheel" rather than listing the family or school associated with the mon. An interesting book for graphic designers, perhaps, but not very useful for kamon identification.
Japanese design motifs; 4260 illustrations of heraldic crests. Compiled by the Matsuya Piece-Goods Store by Matsuya Piece-Goods Store
A superb collection of kamon, or Japanese family crests. These appear on formal kimono as well as being used as design elements on other household items. A very affordable classic.
