Figure 10. Copperplate engraving from George Bickham’s book, “The Universal Penman,” 1733–1741. With copperplate engraving, leers were cut, in reverse, into a metal plate with a pointed burin. The entire plate was then inked and the surface wiped clean, leaving ink in the engraved areas for printing onto paper. Figure 11. Personal correspondence from 1819. Copperplate handwriting was wrien by professional scribes and amateurs alike using a flexible pointed quill. Figure 12. Typefaces like Thomas Corell’s double pica script of 1774 presented even skilled punchcuers with the difficult task of reproducing the natural leer joins and fine hairlines characteristic of copperplate handwriting.
