Letters

Here are some examples of envelops for private letters that Mr. Burns has penned for his clients, each in a slightly different style. Your return address would be written on the back flap of the envelope, as the smaller pictures below each envelope shows. You may click on any picture to see it in more detail.

These beautiful envelopes display a very even, yet flowing and graceful hand. The clear, rounded script is written in various styles in black ink with 24K gold highlights on the name and decorations around the Zip Code. The border is accentuated with ruled black lines. The bottom left corner of the first envelope has a strengthening applique of marbled paper. The envelopes themselves are made from a moon-grey cotton paper with small blue fibers scattered throughout, from Crane.
