lettering in the body of the resolution
was ra inches high, whfle the spacing
between these lines was M inches
wide. Lettering pen No. 3% was
used. The name, John G. Rolker, was
first outlined in pencil, then outlined
in ink and later the lower part of
the letters was inked in black and
the upper part filled with gray shading.
The size of the capital letters
was % inches in height. The words,
"Officers and Directors" were done
with a No. 20 double pointed pen.
The resolution was done in black
ink. The principal lines were shaded
in gray which softened the black
letters. The shading is lost in this
photostat. The price received for
this job was $35.00. This lesson
should be quite easy for beginners in
engrossing as it contains very little
ornamentation. Try it.
The February issue was a "gold
mine" for engrossing students.
