Fancy Letter C

This fancy letter C image is decorated with some doodles inside the letter and is part of a set of 13 drop cap letters from the same text.

All of the letter images in this set are in the public domain. The other letters include: A, B, E, H, I, L, M, N, O, S, T and U.

All of these letter images were included in the 1872 publicaiton A Book of Emblems with Interpretations Thereof. It remains unclear if the publishers Bell and Daldy used letters from a print foundry, they were drawn by the author Alfred Gatty (1809-1873) or they were drawn by some un-named artist.
