Tuck and Seal Letter Lock

Another interesting demonstration of period correspondence from the Letterlocking Videos channel on YouTube.  This time it's a recreation of the traditional tuck and seal technique used by poet Phillis Wheatley in a 1772 letter to her friend Obour Tanner.  The seal is relatively simple, making it perfect for in-game prop letters.  On interesting tidbit I came across is that the use of wafers is only appropriate for missives to friends and those of equal or lower class.  Messages to those higher on the social scale required a wax seal.

Cthulhu Tome

Another stunning example of tomecrafting from artist Alex Libris.  His "Cthulhu journal" features the sigil created for the Simon Necronomicon back in 1977.
