Part I is devoted to writing and illuminating.
One of the founders of modern calligraphy, Edward Johnston regarded lettering, writing, and illuminating as not only desirable ends in themselves but also as practical avenues to mastery of typography, decoration, and design. In this classic, profusely illustrated guide, he distilled his expertise into a series of easy-to-follow lessons that will benefit any student of calligraphy, book design, or art.Part I is devoted to writing and illuminating. Early chapters cover the fundamentals of acquiring a formal hand: choosing paper, ink, and quills; holding the pen; spacing and planning a manuscript; and more. The author then turns to the techniques of producing a manuscript book: tools and materials, methods and proportions, margins, and other methods. Part II offers a detailed discussion of lettering: the qualities of good lettering, methods of construction and arrangement, spacing, proportion, and other matters. Two appendixes cover the uses of lettering in book bindings, wall inscriptions, monograms, and title pages as well as the techniques involved in lettering on metal, wood, and stone.

Not for all surfaces.
Size: 11.5 Wide, Color: Black Leather/Optic White
The sneakers look great and are comfortable on flat, smooth surfaces. Warning: The sole is very flexible and not well cushioned so a walk on rough or uneven surfaces can become uncomfortable quickly. Just understand the limitations.

Comfort Meets Coastal Style – A New Favorite Tee
Size: X-Large, Color: Dark Heather
The Costa Del Mar Costa Topwater T‑Shirt is everything you want in a casual, everyday shirt. The material is super soft and lightweight, making it perfect for warm weather or long days outdoors. It feels breathable and comfortable without being too thin.
The fit is spot on—true to size with a relaxed feel that doesn’t look baggy. The design is clean and stylish, with that classic Costa vibe that’s perfect whether you’re out on the water or just hanging out.
After multiple washes, it’s held up great—no shrinking, fading, or losing its shape. You can tell it’s made with quality materials that are built to last.
If you’re looking for a comfortable, good-looking t-shirt that represents a laid-back coastal lifestyle, this one is a great pick. Definitely worth it!

Great shirt, runs a tad small
Size: X-Large, Color: Navy
Great looking shirt and good value for the money. Depending on your build you may want to order a size larger. I'm 6'4" and 207. I typically wear an XL and ordered an XL. It fits me but is a little snug there is not much room in the shoulders and sleeves or body for that matter. If I were back to my previous weight of 245 with a larger waist I would have to return it and get a XXL.
