Here's a link to a old book called "Art Monograms and Lettering". I'd post a copy here but it's 21megs so here's the link to it. I haven't looked through the whole book yet but what I've glanced at seems kind of interesting.

Oh my...those monograms and alphabets are beautiful.
Some enterprising font creator should digitize them.

Thanks for the find.

I used to have some things that belonged to my great grandparents that had been written in some wonderful calligraphy. I lost them in a fire.

That said, it was nice to see this as it brought back some nice memories. Thank you for posting it up.
