you're right don... thank you... now i've just got to try and find out who made a typeface of it!
Could be Alejandro Paul's Business Penmanship.
Quoted from MF About text
Later on, in the early 1900s Austin Palmer introduced the Palmer Method of business penmanship, and it soon became the most popular handwriting system in the United States.
thanks ryuk, it shares its spirit, but it's not the one
Don't want to sound stubborn but I don't see any differences with your sample at this size and quality. Do you have more like the origin, a website?
hi ryuk, thanks for your 'stubborness' :-)
it is the only sample i have, and as i said, business penmanship is really close... it is just a little lighter, and the lower case 'e' has a 'flick' that is missing on the image sample... there is also an obvious loop on the 'r', and the dot on the 'i' is hollow
I think Ryuk is still right: The flick of |e| as well as the loop of |r| and the hollow dot of |i| are probably disappeared due to the low resolution of your image.
The font suggested by Ryuk seems like an exact match.
fair enough... i'm still not sure, but unless i find something nearer soon, i will happily bow to your judgment... thanks so much for your help
There are still people who can write in Palmer style, and other variations of Spencerian Script, with such regularity that it is difficult to spot differences in repeating letter combinations. Consider the following example from the fountain pen network in 2012
I trust it would be possible for a penman to produce an exact duplicate of your sample.

Reminds me of the script taught to students in _The Palmer Method of Business Writing_ by A.N. Palmer before almost all business writing became typewritten.
