Sylvester, Charles Herbert · 1922 · Chicago : Bellows-Reeve · 36 pictures

Journeys through Bookland is a 1922 Chicago children's literature anthology compiled by Charles Herbert Sylvester for young readers, published by Bellows-Reeve. The pictures are repeated decorative initial letters, each a large serif T set inside a shield-shaped panel filled with fine scrollwork. A designer could take from them a ready model for a monogram or drop-cap frame with dense, ornamental background pattern behind a bold letter.
