      Not really old - I see the "@" sign!!!
      But nice found!

      the @ did exist prior to the world of the internet - my mother's typewriter circa 1968 has one.

      It's a great find though.

      Love the colors and the rusty texture. Just great.

      wonderful.

      BTW, this seems to me to be crying out for notes:

      "A is for 'abecedarium'"
      "B is for 'blog'"

      etc, (though, of course, with more interesting notes).

      An old three throw / three glyphs per character job. The weathering is good locking, but it probably doesn't work anymore.

      Terrific image, and thank you for releasing it under a creative commons license. I thought you'd like to know that I'd just used it on a blog post, at www.technovia.co.uk/2010/01/the-future-of-journalism-its-.... Thanks again!

      1536: Francesco Lapi, a Florentine merchant, uses the @ symbol while penning a letter. It’s the first recorded use of the “at” sign outside a monastery.
