Many years ago I bought a book at Hershey, “THE MODEL T FORD CAR” by Victor Page. Folded inside the book we’re several advertisements for Victory Piston Rings, a HUBACO Re-Boring Machine and The Anderson Steam Vulcanizer School clipped from a newspaper. There was also a hand written script paper neatly folded on “ How the power plant of a Ford Car is removed”. It was so neatly written that I framed and displayed it all these years. Several weeks ago as I was reading it once again I noticed at the bottom of the paper was written
1-23-21. One hundred years ago today. I just thought this would be neat to share on the Forum. Thanks.

Besides some good information the handwriting is really nice! Nowadays people would type out the information on a computer keyboard, print it and that would be it.
This is a good example of great handwriting. The teaching of handwriting has now turned into learning a keyboard that’s on computers, I pads and electronic devices.
I can remember using a Big Chief tablet in school and learning how to get the smooth circular motion using a pencil going in circles over and over and over————-!
Simple things turning into a lost art.
