Readable fine words with a long surname cross-stroke

Henry Ford appears in two fine connected groups. A looped H opens the first word, with a descending return near its end, while a tall F introduces the surname beneath a long upper cross-stroke. Compare the first word’s lower loop with the surname’s upper gesture: they frame a low readable band from different directions.

Opening, letter body and finish

The opening is lower than the typical letter body. The opening-to-body ratio is 0.79×, while the whole image is 3.37 times as wide as it is tall. The rightmost ink finishes above the writing line; look at this ending separately from the slant of the letters themselves.

Loops and the lower flourish

The sample contains 7 enclosed loops and 4 main ink groups. The letterforms carry the main horizontal movement; there is no long lower underline detected beneath their band.

Henry Ford’s signature in graphology
