W Image

Vintage fancy letter W drop cap image. This black and white drop cap image of the letter W includes vines, leaves and flowers in a tall and narrow design that would make a great addition to any written or other creative work.

This fancy letter W image is from a set of public domain drop cap images which includes the letters: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, M, O, Q, R, S and T.

The letter images in this group are most likely from a print foundry. The foundries provided publishers like Gould and Lincoln with moveable type for flourishes and drop cap lettering. They used this gorup of letters to add interest to the book Anecdotes for Boys. Entertaining Narratives and Anecdotes Illustrative of Principles of Character written by Harvey Newcomb and released in 1851.
