I call it a finial, a term I learned from T.J. Lyons, a famous old- 
school Boston typographer with whom I worked in the 80s.

Dear all:

I'm trying to remember the editor's/printer's term for an icon placed
at the end of an article to indicate its termination. Can anyone
recall? I think we discussed this a few years ago, but I can't recall
the answer.

Best,
Bill
