What's Included
- Each month you receive a new frontier letter — 200–300 handwritten words printed from an original dip‑pen page. Every issue features a different voice from the Old West: mountain men, prospectors, ranch hands, mushers, farmers, blacksmiths, wagon makers, and other scattered souls of the frontier. Your letter is printed on a scanned, aged background, giving every page the look of old paper pulled from a saddlebag. Many issues include small dip‑pen illustrations — simple sketches, trail marks, tools, animals, or whatever the writer might have added in the moment. Every letter arrives as a standalone artifact: uneven ink, rough charm, and the honest imperfections of real frontier correspondence.
About This Club
Letters From the West is a monthly dip‑pen frontier letter, written as if pulled straight from a saddlebag in 1897. Each issue is a short, handwritten dispatch from the scattered lives of cowboys, mountain men, prospectors, ranch hands, mushers, farmers, blacksmiths, wagon makers, and all the quiet souls who carved their stories into the early American West. Every letter is printed from an original dip‑pen page, complete with uneven ink, misspellings, and the rough charm of a real artifact. Many issues include small hand‑drawn illustrations — simple frontier sketches made with the same pen and ink — adding an extra touch of character and authenticity. No two months are alike. Each letter arrives as a standalone piece of frontier ephemera: a different voice, a different place, and a different moment in time.
