The Science Gossip Alphabet!

• by jules moderator

  Not wanting to be outdone by Galaxy Zoo or Plankton Portal 😃 I put this alphabet together from some of the decorative letters we found in "Wiltshire archaeological and natural history magazine" and "Hardwicke's Science Gossip". I had to resort to using letters from chapter titles to fill in the gaps but we have an alphabet! (Yes I was bored and needed something to do!) If your favourite letter didn't make it don't worry - there may well be more versions! Enjoy!

  This is simply awesome, @jules !!! 😃 Thanks much for your boredom and for putting them together 😃

  Just the high res gives me 504 Gateway Time-out .(

  Edit: I've tried again and it works!! 😃 Now we need a volunteer who would create a convertor 😃

  Thank you!

  Here's another with some different letters. Not convinced it works as a writing tool though.
  
  I think I might be done playing now!
