    Default Blackletter/Fraktur

    Hello,

    I have a variety of penmanship books and whatnot, including the wonderful book by Master Penman Michael Sull. Does anyone have a resource for learning Fraktur/Blackletter? I have looked on Amazon and the Web in general, but as those pages are ranked by popularity I am guessing that they quality resources are hidden out there somewhere. Many thanks to any suggestions people can provide.

    Judith Schalansky's "Fraktur Mon Amour" is a very good entrance, though it doesn't specifically teach how (that can be learned easily - and more or less anywhere) it does give many, many examples for one to study, develop, and elaborate upon .
