This folder was found with Bill McGraw's engraving stuff. He would engrave any font wanted but here is one that he used. Without this key, I would have a hard time distinguishing many of the letters. Thought a few here might be interested.

They don't make it easy with these obscure fonts.

Walt,
Thanks. I've got to take another look at the engraved letters that have driven me crazy! Maybe I'll figure them out with the help of your material.
What is the publication date of the "Wedding Text" book?

It's what I have always known as Gothic Script. We probaly come across it a bit more often here in England. Not very straight forward I must admit. Lagopus.....

Walt: I'm sitting at IN state trap shoot talking to Bill Mains. I showed him your Rosetta stone on blackberry. He showed me a picture of your $2000 grade Ithaca 37. NICE. He says hello. He also said he knew Bill Mcgraw well. Cheers.
