History Of Type Postcard I did Not Use

 The above is my other idea for my 'History of Type' Postcard which I decided not to use. I do like this postcard and the way I was able to get the word Manuscript to run along the picture of the knife, However I feel I couldn't get it to stand out well enough for the viewer to see. I also feel that you can see the corners from were I had to crop the image also. What I do like though is the detail of the picture and how you can see the different shades of black on each letter from were the pen may have been running low or just how the scribe didn't put enough pressure when writing. 

This image is the back of the postcard. I decided not to use the same image and just make it less visible in the background because the image i obtained of a manuscript as you can see already has writing on it. If I were to write over it with any typeface it would make it difficult to read. Again I made sure to leave room who the sender to write their message to the receiver. I also made sure not to forget information about the picture on the front, and about manuscripts itself.
