Hello Richard,
the tenth would be partially hidden by one of the microscopes.
I certainly cannot identify any of them, but I was under the impression that you had identified them as Swiss. Perhaps it was an assumption.
It's worth comparing the image with this one:
![[Image: fig.-41.-apotheke.jpg]](http://www.lexikus.de/pics/manager/mittelalter/deutsches_leben_anno_xiv-xv/fig.-41.-apotheke.jpg)
where there are 28 (including two on the table). While the quality isn't very good, I think there are already a few 'armorial beasts' among them.

Perhaps the book in which these illustrations are found explain better what the patterns mean, because I am not sure how a box would relate to a family or a city, and I could even imagine that these are rather "codes" for the contents.
A very interesting page is also this one:

and I am surprised that I had not run into it before. The leftmost woodcut is from after 1350.
