Today was about an eleven hour day at work, and tomorrow should be about the same, but I could not resist sharing two links from my daily reading.
First, the HB interviews Brian Willson of Three Islands Press font design. (Worth the side trip of a separate click: Janet Stephens' historical hair designs, but I've posted her before, so back to the subject at hand.) Willson creates historical handwriting fonts. How enchanting!
Next, take a look at Elizabeth Chadwick's possibly-Elizabethan chair, which is art, furniture, artifact, and a tantalizing clue to an architectural aspect of English ecclesiastical history. If I weren't about to go to bed, I'd be researching Victorian restorations right now to see if the "junk" heirloom might have come from one of these refurbishments. But I am probably late to sign off and get ready for bed as it is, so will leave you all to it!
