1897 Initial Letter A Print

Here is the first letter of the alphabet from a new series of alphabet illustrations, coming from a very old edition of the Larousse dictionnary, the 1897 edition. It is a beautiful vintage calligraphic illustration for the letter A, with one main illustration framed by many smaller ones. The bottom of the page illustrates the history of the shape of the letter A, with illustrations of the various forms it took. The back of the page is printed with other A dictionary articles.
This initial A illustration would be lovely framed or inserted into your best scrapbooking or collage project, for monogram initials or an office door decoration for example. It would also be great for classroom decor.

𝗦𝗜𝗭𝗘: page approx. 26 x 30 cm (10 1/4" x 11 3/4"), image approx. 20.5 x 17.2 cm (8" x 6 3/4")

𝗔𝗨𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗡𝗧𝗜𝗖𝗜𝗧𝗬: This is a real dictionary page for the alphabet lettre A from 1897 carefully extracted from a damaged volume. This page is in excellent condition except for yellowing. It is printed on thicker paper than the later editions so it is quite sturdy.
