Bloser purchased a share of the company in 1891 and in 1895 the school changed its name to the Zaner-Bloser Company. Zaner-Bloser Inc. Originally, the school prepared students for careers as penmen. Penmen often worked in business, preparing ledgers, writing correspondence and creating documents before the invention of the typewriter. Zaner-Bloser also taught students to become teachers of penmanship, illustrators and engravers, as well as engrossers, who employ the type of ornamental writing used for diplomas and certificates.

As the company history states: “In 1904, Zaner-Bloser published The Zaner Method of Arm Movement, a landmark text that taught the simplified style of writing learned by students at the Zanerian to children in elementary schools all over the United States. This book also applied the findings of psychologists who had discovered that young children completed manual tasks more easily if allowed to use the large arm movements that were natural to them at their early stage of motor skills development.”   Round Letter alphabet Ornate Roman alphabet Ornamented Semi-Script alphabet Ornamental Egyptian alphabet Old English alphabet Modernised Broad Pen Medieval and Church Text alphabet Light Line Block Marking or Skeleton alphabet Italian Square Top alphabet Broad-pen Roman alphabet Block Ornament alphabet Applied Lettering of Proportion Modification Aesthetic Text alphabet Via: The Zaner-Bloser Penmanship Collection at the (Jesuit) University of Scranton.
