Illustrations compiled from Neon Signs and Cold-Cathode Lighting, by Samuel C. Miller, Tubelite Co., 2nd Edition, 1963 (1st Edition, 1935). Collection of Letterform Archive.
I assume this to be the most comprehensive technical manual on neon ever published. Subsequent reprints are easy to track down and it makes a great companion to Neon: A Light History, by Dydia DeLyser and Paul Greenstein, which was just released last month.
Progress shot of just the lettering. You can see my other ideas for letters above it. :)

A rather fine and indeed early such booklet - issued by the municipally owned and operated Corporation of Glasgow's Electricity Department in 1910 as part of a 'smoke abatement exhibition'. At the time the use of electricity in industrial settings was only really starting to be widespread and in the domestic setting these were early days - lighting probably being the main use in the home.
The 68 page booklet gives details of the Corporation's works, the main generating stations at the time being that at Port Dundas and St. Andrew's Cross although other smaller generating plant was still, I think, at this date in use and the Tramways Department had their own power station at Pinkston. It also sets out the various tariffs as well as quite detailed descriptions of the various domestic appliances available as well as some of the industrial applications of electricity. The booklet also contains many adverts for quite early manufacturers and suppliers of equipment.
The cover is suitably of its time with a art nouveau theme along with the City's coat of arms.
My wife’s great grandfather’s “Lettering for pen and brush” manual, the cover of which is nearly obliterated with “practice” or possibly “accidents”. I’ll be sure to post a shot of the entire cover in the near future. It’s quite the work of art.
by Rudolph Wendelin. Scanned at the Forest History Service.
Lauren Hart did some amazing research on the National Forests signage, and found the designer to be Rudolph Wendelin, a graphic artist that popularized Smokey the Bear. At Lauren’s suggestion, I emailed the Forest History Society, and they returned with a scan of the original material. Amazing. Thank you so much Lauren!!
Lettering I did, cutted out of steel with water! I'ts now for a week on my balcony to let it rust....
Placed in the 29th Annual of Advertising and Editorial Art, 1950. Quite different from the Modernist stuff for which he was later known. Still bold, though.
If you live in Portland I think this guide is out now! I did some lettering for the cover and interiors.
ps. very exciting to be hired to do lettering!

Built as SSW 9660 in September 1989. Originally patched to UP 1965 and then later renumbered to UP 1076. Currently one of six final patched Cotton Belt locomotives on Union Pacific’s roster as of January 2023. When UP 1413, the last patched SP Roman lettered locomotive on the roster, was graffiti tagged almost beyond recognition it left those six former Cotton Belt GP60s as the final examples of Southern Pacific style Roman lettering on UP’s roster.
