Handwriting For Beginners: Manuscript (1968)
The 1968 educational short Handwriting for Beginners – Manuscript blends handwriting instruction with a whimsical fairy tale. Produced by Coronet, the film follows a boy with exceptional penmanship who, despite being cursed with an evil pencil by a magician, triumphs in a handwriting contest. His skill earns him not only victory but also the hand of a princess and, eventually, the throne. While intended to teach children proper manuscript-writing techniques, the film’s delightfully absurd storyline adds an unexpected charm.
