Based on a color original by an engrosser by the name of F. R La Fave created in 1932. His work was sent and seen and displayed by many prominent people of his day - politicians, bishops and well-off Americans. He used the art of caligraphy and also Illustration to do by hand what is usually done by computers today. The richness in detail of his work and the formation and artistic uniformity of the letters and the art is impossible to convey on the Internet. Click on the photo to see a small representation of the color original.Thanks to the generosity of the current copy right holder, this is available at a price that should be affordable to most people.
