Description: 16.00 Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE StLouBrown's Bygone Days "Let Bygones Be back" Vintage pinback as a merit award for the Palmer Method of penmanship, developed by Austin Palmer in the 1880s as the standard for business writing, which had to be clear and legible in the days before typewriters. The Palmer Method was offered in business schools to train stenographers, scriveners and the like, and this pinback from the early part of the 20th century was issued to a student who had successfully progressed through the program. In this case, the paper label on the button’s reverse reads: The Palmer Method Button The winner has satisfactorily mastered the first 25 drills in The Palmer Method Manual Palmer had invented what was considered a simplified style of its predecessor, the Spencerian Method, introduced in the 1840s. Palmer handwriting used movement of the entire arm, as opposed to making the fingers construct the cursive letters. It fell out of favor in the 1950s and Palmer stopped publishing its textbooks in the 1980s. Manufactured by The Palmer Company, Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Button measures 7/8” in diameter.
