Once in common use, the writing guide looks at first glance simply like a modern ruler without numbers or graduations. It was used not to measure but as it’s name implies, simply as a guide to aid in penning letters and ledger entries in a day when fine penmanship was the norm. In use from before the 1700s by the mid 1850s the old standard wooden writing guides began to appear in the new hard rubber material process patented by Goodyear. This Civil War era example measures approximately 10 inches in length and 1 inch wide with no markings. The guide remains in excellent all original condition with minimal evidence of period use and handling as testimony to it’s age and originality. Buy with confidence!
