Calligraphy Gold Mine

I was perusing 100 layer cake the other day (one of my new faves!) and there was this post on a calligraphy website called iampeth.

Not only is there a lot of gorgeous calligraphy to look at, but there are entire rare books you can download for free. For those of you that have the talent of penmanship this is an amazing resource! The site focuses on penmanship from the 1800′s to the early 1900′s. So cool!! Enjoy!

Handwriting was the main form of nonverbal communication before the telephone and its history is totally forgotten in schools today. IAMPETH, the International Association of Master Penmen, Engrossers and Teachers of Handwriting keeps the technique and history of penmanship alive. It is a beautiful website.

I love the style and information of your WV website.
Would be interested in submitting my website/calligraphy for consideration to link to your lovely site and to obtain advertising information.
