J.Crew Script Font?

Hi Guys,

Any ideas on the script font below?

Much appreciated,

Do not know what font it is but the Art Director should be fired. All the Y's on the bottom line have been cut off.

Actually I think it is hand written.

I think its likely a font, but one with lots of ligatures and alternates. The wh ligs and ending w's appear the same, but at that size I can't be certain.

That thing with the y's is pretty atrocious. I always find it amazing how something like that can run through whole committees and get unnoticed. I've seen this same behavior when copying type from Freehand to Photoshop. Sometimes descenders run too far below the descender boundary and just get clipped. Turning the type to outlines before copying will prevent that.

You're right. Unbelievable. They do make some decent clothes though. Thanks for the help! Anybody else, please?

Best,

" All the Y’s on the bottom line have been cut off. " The graphic artist was doing it passed the hour with no over time paid. Possibly.
