Photo of my girlfriend and a couple of her friends at the Cursive concert. I forgot to post it at the time, but I like this one!
I could not accomplish this fantastic handwriting with the best pen on the finest paper.
The deeply incised, printer-like inscription of "P. Gilmer Breckinridge, 1859 VA," is marred by a chip biting into the C in his last name and edging up to the 9 in the date.
Breckinridge came through El Morro with 25 camels from a short-lived Army experiment. He would later resign, join the Confederacy and die in the Civil War.
The same expedition included "E. Pen Long, Baltimore," who left a large signature in flowing, perfect old-fashioned script.
The group, doing reconnaissance, "had all kind of tools with them for marking features on the landscape for mapping purposes," Baumann said. "They would have been well-equipped to make some nice inscriptions."
Although the expedition was in 1857, Breckinridge didn't carve his name until another trip in 1859.
my various handwritings.
everyone likes my old handwriting/ my curly letters. i prefer my new handwriting.
Dating from 1955, this machine types in a cursive font. It is a "portable" machine, but is pretty dern heavy; so I recommend it be a desktop model. It has a beautiful robin's egg blue finish with some wear at the hand rests and a slight chip on the left side. I've had it in my collection for many years and always enjoyed it. An elegant machine for any correspondence lover's home.
Cursive (Tim Kasher) @ Wicker Park Street Festival, Chicago, IL. July 28th, 2012.
I went to Chicago last month & totally forgot I shot these (this is probably due to the fact that I shot Mike Mills & that pretty much scrambled my photo brain at the time)! Anyhow, Cursive was amazing as always & I'm super excited to be shooting them again in just a few weeks at FYF in Los Angeles.

This is my mom's old address book. Must be 30 years old. Nothing like writing letters versus using text on the cell phone.
I don't know about other countries, but many educators in the US (to my dismay and many others') are trying to eliminate teaching handwriting in primary grades. What a mistake.
