8.) Alphabets of Atkinson Volume #1 by The Fontry!
One dozen of the finest examples of Art Nouveau lettering anywhere! The Alphabets of Atkinson, Volume One, represents the best-of-the-best by sign-industry legend Frank H. Atkinson. His book, Sign Painting was published almost 100 years ago and has become the artistic standard for generations of signpainters and computer-aided signmakers. The dozen Alphabets of Atkinson cover the gamut of historical styles, from ornate tuscans to flowing scripts, all of which expertly complement a secondary range of Atkinson's less-elaborate workhorse styles that are still classics in their own right. There's something here for every signmaker, from the ordinary to the extraordinary. All 12 alphabets have complete character ranges and are published on CD. Thanks to Mike Atkins at The Fontry for supplying this prize. Check out his entire font collection at http://www.thefontry.com

Thank you Kellie and everyone at Precision Board. I bought myself a sandblasting cabinet last Christmas and have had little time to use it. Now it's time to make time and get going with the Precision Board.
I feel guilty about all the benifits of this Letterhead website with memberships dues of only $50. Where else can you get so much information, connections with people in your own trade and perks like this monthly draw for such a small investment?
Thanks Barb and Steve for keeping this site going.
