Henry Fisher's 1869 Penmanship Practice with Great Word Combinations! pretty vase as much as anything else

as much as anything else in the world

One could wrap the edges around a stretcher

maybe as a cloche over a head of garlic

make the form feel earthy and organic

which I think are almost as lovely as the fronts

Henry Fisher's 1869 Penmanship Practice with Great Word Combinations! pretty vase as much as anything elseI've rarely met a penmanship practice notebook I didn't like, but think this is an especially nice one, filled by a Henry Fisher in 1869, under to watch of his tutor W. J. Sleiffer and I believe from Pennsylvania. What I especially love about this one is the repetition of consistently good, juicy words, and especially the pairs of words side by side, usually two to a page: Valentine Vermilion; Yearning Yawning ; Machine Manikin; Teaching Treachery,
