A fellow designer has asked me to identify the following script, but it seems I cant recall the name, even if I am pretty sure that Ive seen this one, used heavily, before.:

I think this may be a 'home-made' (amateur) font, but it has a resemblance to a freeware font from the Apostrophic Lab, by Dana Rice & Apostrophe, called 'Desyrel' (see sample).

This is the closest match I can find.

This is a very early (ca. 1989) and thus poor digital version of my own handwriting, with no cap I by the looks of it.

Thank you, Mike, Thank you, Erik..

( Erik, maybe someone made another proper version, of your very own handwriting, without you even knowing it.? An 'Erikspiekermannhandwritingscriptfanfont', maybe.? )

May be..
I would consider myself a Central European, German speaking designer, but my handwriting is quite different.. But, maybe thats just me, and my miserable kind of writing..
