Thank you!

(Gràcies!

Esker!)

I think I will try this out. Any advice for learning the forms? Just repetition?

Thanks,

I am not sure how one would go about learning this form. I have never seen a decent modern example. I am not sure why.

I'm working on a classy but strong signature with my signature pen (broad stub) :

How can anyone know it was actually YOU who signed whatever? I like signatures where I can at least make out part of the name.

You can't fool me...that's our President's fist. Are you incognito on this forum?

 

Actually, my plunge down the rabbit hole was initiated by a fascination with Secretary Hand, with its oddly left-slanting ascenders. It was the moment before italic came into England, and it visually represents Shakespeare's English, right before it was regularized by King James's scholars when they translated the Bible. Italic regularized handwriting in the same way, and it's interesting to see the parallel evolution.

(How can I say this without offending you?) That doesn't look so much like a signature as it does a glorified scribble which with just a little practice could be easily forged.
