Large Drop Cap S

Take one of the standard publisher’s drop cap S images, add a bit of doodle-like accents and you have this large fancy letter S image. I think it looks even better when you shrink it a bit! This image was included in the interesting book about Triumphs of Invention and Discovery in Art and Science which was published by T. Nelson and Sons of London in 1871.
