This review is from: Compendium Of Ancien Artistic Initials For Vintage Style Monograms (Paperback)
I have been looking for a book like this for years. I love to monogram vintage linens to give as gifts...esp. wedding presents. This book offers the most wonderful variety and clarity! Throw out all the others, THIS is the book to have.

This review is from: Compendium Of Ancien Artistic Initials For Vintage Style Monograms (Paperback)
I've contemplated for a while whether I should get this book or go with one of the cheaper monogram books out there. Finally I decided to go with this one, and all I can say is WOW!!! All the letters are good quality, black and white and big (about 2 inches high) however, some of them are even bigger and contains flourishes like flower, butterfly or a bird. I've received this book today and I'm blown away. The letters are organized simply by alphabetical order, there are no writing in this book except for one page at the beginning which is the Preface. I think the images will come out nicely when photocopied because there are no wishy-washy details; they are all done in line drawings and they are clear. I've seen monograms just like these or even these on old linens and I so wanted to duplicate them. I am thrilled, this is the book for that!
