Spencerian Handwriting
The first all-in-one edition of P.R. Spencer's Spencerian Penmanship workbook, including step-by-step calligraphy lessons and practice pages.
Easy to follow yet challenging for calligraphy enthusiasts, the Spencerian script was once the gold standard for personal and business correspondence in the 1800s.

• The seven Spencerian principles

• Arm and finger movement techniques
• Letter height and width guidelines
• Letter and word spacing
• Optional calligraphy shading techniques
With Spencerian Handwriting, you can add a personal handwritten touch to your letters and notes, evoking a time of refined penmanship and classic elegance.
