Hello,
Looking for recommendations on a nice handwriting font – as if seen in a letter from a hundred years ago (WW1). Would be great to have some glyph variations to keep things believable. Short paragraphs but should be quite legible. Ta!

Knowing the gender of the letter writer would help. Some possible options:

http://www.g-type.com/olicana-font has plenty of variations to look convincing. I wrote it with a steel nib pen.
Also consider these two:

Both come with a good set of glyph and ligature variations.
