Branding Iron Bill

I'm sure that a few of you gents that choose to draw your own patterns will find this book of interest.  Although the book leans heavily on architectual details of the ancients i.e. Gothic, Egyptian, Grecian, etc., a lot of the illustrations could easily be adapted for leather carving.  The book was published back in the 1800's, so it is definitely 'old school'.  Enjoy.
