Line-O-Scribe Literature

Since the subject of the Line-O-Scribe show card / sign press comes up here every so often, I thought I’d note that (at the prompting of a correspondent), two complete Line-O-Scribe manuals and sundry research are now online at:

(Skip the boring stuff at the beginning and go straight to Section 3: Literature. The two design patents and associated typeface showings are at the very end.)

In the process I discovered the design patents for two new-to-me typefaces, and was able to identify them in the catalogs: Fashionaire and Fashion Art. I suspect they were issued in wood only; McGrew is silent about them.
