Red Letter B

Vintage red block print drop cap letter B. A rare colored drop cap image, this fancy letter B surrounds a flower on a block-print style image.

This is one of those wonderful stock publisher images. In this case it was used by Claxton, Remsen & Haffelfinger and William D Baker (Engraver) in Cecil’s Book of Birds from 1869.
