After the National Postal Museum's overwhelming response to its 2005 call for calligraphers to mail in envelopes artfully addressed to “The Graceful Envelope,” the museum did several things:

  • In 1995 it printed this 32-page booklet reproducing many of those entries.

  • It made The Graceful Envelope an annual contest at the museum...

  • ...until turning it over to the Washington Calligraphers Guild in 2001.
