Disconnected letters, uneven cant, same letters formed differently (cf. the lower-case "e" in "hope" or "lend" vs. those in "free?). If had had a penmanship teacher, that teacher lamented his handwriting. We love it because lettering with a fountain pen is so different from lettering with ball points. It instantly elevates even an average hand.mejakahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10672224251678977229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8163423095612471504.post-53015450938817338602012-02-10T08:03:59.736-05:002012-02-10T08:03:59.736-05:00Now that's a great signing of a book!
