Synopsis
Excerpt from The Penman’s Hand-Book: For Penmen and Students, Embracing a History of Writing, With Fac-Simile Illustrations From Ancient Manuscripts, Many Complete Alphabets by the Leading Pen Artists of England, France and Germany
The author has spent the better part of his life as a practical teacher of writing, and has examined all the various systems and methods. In the chapter on teaching penmanship he has endeavored to give such hints as to teaching as seem to him most important; among these is a simple, rational analysis that will commend itself to the practical common sense of American parents, as well as to children, and which will do more for a class than any other he has ever seen put in practice. He will take his chances as to the success practically of that part of the work if it does not do some good, and counteract, in a measure, the senseless trash promulgated by many, it will, on the other hand, do no harm.
For the forms of Invitations, Visiting Cards, and the like, he is indebted to Messrs. Carroll Dempsey, of Union Square, who are considered authority by our best society.
