Old botanical drawings generally were labeled by hand in a Spencerian script. There are a number of fonts that mimic this style.KThat may have been me, Lore. And there was not a definite conclusion that I remember.I used Grimshaw Hand, and and spread the kerning a lot. Also added three pencil rules top, middle and bottom and it had the flavor of type that went with the illustrations.Best,Linda_____________________Linda M. Feltner Artist, LLC

I can't find the thread. Can anyone remember what was concluded from the discussion?Thanks! Lore--
