If your clerk is an older man, so much the better, for his experience and understanding, if he's still there. This is a sort of Mecca for oriental writing tools.

2 The Chinese collections are particularly strong in pre-Yuan writing, and the curatorial attention to calligraphy is evident in the labels. Oracle-bone inscriptions on the early bronzes are enlarged and explained; the Southern Song collection is magnificent and there are a series of rubbings from the early master Wang Xizhi (303-361 CE). Finally, don't miss the series of pastiches by the early Qing calligrapher Bada Shanren (1702). (Paul Werner)

6 The Karpeles Library is the world's largest private holding of important original manuscripts & documents. The archives include Literature, Science, Religion, History and Art. Among the treasures are .... The original draft of the Bill of Rights of the United States, The original manuscript of The Wedding March, Einstein's description of his Theory of Relativity, The Thanksgiving Proclamation signed by George Washington, Roget's Thesaurus, Webster's Dictionary and over one million more.
7 The collection includes more than 500 items, approximately 1/3 of which are of a genealogical nature. It also includes penmanship items ranging from letters and notes to decorative flourishing, school memorabilia, even a political pendent and a showpiece from the 1853 New York World's Fair. The collection is open to scholarly study. A slide program, regarding the family, will be given to groups upon adequate prior arrangement. (back to Ohio) (back to top)
8 As a result of the move, MCBA will nearly double its space, making it the country's largest, most comprehensive center of its kind--a workshop, classroom, gallery, archive and retail store all in one. Visitors can watch various aspects of bookmaking in progress and MCBA wil continue to offer a variety of programs from youth tours to lectures to classes in bookbinding, papermaking and letterpress printing. Book artists of all abilities can participate in MCBA's Tuesday night Open Studio or rent studio space. The two other major tenants of Open Book are The Loft Literary Center and Milkweed Press. A coffeehouse and a bookstore are also scheduled to open soon in the building. Open Book provides a creative environment for writers, readers, artists and publishers to work together, along with financial stability for the 3 main tenants and future opportunities for collaboration.
9 The Center for Book Arts is dedicated to preserving the traditional crafts of book-making, as well as exploring and encouraging contemporary interpretations of the book as an art object. Founded in 1974, it was the first not-for-profit organization of its kind in the nation, and has since become a model for others around the world. Its work is channelled through five program areas: exhibitions related to the arts of the book; lectures on topics of interest to book artists and craftspeople; a modest publication schedule; services to artists, both established and emerging and, much the most prominent currently, an extensive offering of classes. Each year the Center offers three terms of courses, workshops and seminars taught by experienced book artists, and providing hands-on training in all aspects of traditional and contemporary bookmaking, including bookbinding, letterpress printing, papermaking , and other associated arts.
10 Located just east of Pasadena, California, the Huntington is on 130 acres of beautiful flower and garden covered grounds. Multiple gallery buildings exhibit art, statuary and manuscripts. The most famous manuscripts exhibited are a large vellum illuminated Gutenburg Bible and a beautifully scripted Chaucer's Canterbury Tales. The most famous art being the Blue Boy by Gainsborough and Pinkie by Lawerence. Restaurant/cafeteria and a tea room is on the grounds.
