This is an index of hits that are returned when you search the British Library's Simple Search for keyword "puzzle initial" restricted to images only (search conducted 20-22 Feb 2013) and for keyword "puzzle initials" likewise restricted (search conducted 24 Feb 2013). The initials are sorted alphabetically, then by MS. After each entry I have put thumbnails of my renditions of the letters just for kicks.

Here is a handout that I wrote a few years ago on how to do puzzle initials.
