      Were these hand drawn? Or do you have access to the originals? Or at least reproductions of them?

      They look like Victorian era letters you can find in some of the Dover books. It's a wonderful design!

      The letters were sourced from a display typeface book at St Bride's Printing Library (http://www.stbride.org/) - one of the best printing and typographic resources in the country - well worth a visit - heck, why not become a friend of the library as well?

      The U and the E were completely re-drawn though, as the originals didn't have quite the right flavour about them.
