Here's a lovely old bit of typography; this would be stunning in a poem,

or as a decorative touch for a newsletter! By the way, all images presented

here, with the exception of my original drawings, are copyright- and

royalty-free, so you may use them with a clear conscience. Enjoy! - Judy

Victorian era typography - mother cat bottle-feeding kitten

Let me know if you would like to see more typography; I've

been collecting images for years, and I have lots!! - Judy
