Et cetera - Historic Uses
"As I've been showing from time to time, the term "et cetera" has been abbreviated in may unique and interesting ways before settling on the "etc." version we know today. Rather than show sketches from my catalog, I thought this time I'd show some actual images. Here are 3 examples ranging from 1578 to 1702 written as we would use it today, however there is an additional mark above each which denotes "this is an abbreviation" of et cetera."
