Fine readable groups with long internal upper loops
Dwight D Eisenhower forms several slender recognizable groups. Large open beginnings and narrow upper loops interrupt a smaller wavy letter band, ending close to the writing line. Compare those upright landmarks with the compact connected forms: the name’s length comes from its full written groups rather than an extended separate underline.

Opening, letter body and finish
The enlarged opening stands above the smaller letters. The opening-to-body ratio is 2.24×, while the whole image is 4.61 times as wide as it is tall. The rightmost ink finishes below the writing line; look at this ending separately from the slant of the letters themselves.
Loops and the lower flourish
The sample contains 3 enclosed loops and 4 main ink groups. The letterforms carry the main horizontal movement; there is no long lower underline detected beneath their band.
