Examples of house number lettering

Ratbaggy

Maybe I'm searching for the wrong things, but I'm struggling to find examples of (cursive) house number lettering, often placed by the front door of properties (back in the 50s/60s).

Anyone got good references for them?

Cheers.

Maybe not exactly what you are looking for, but an old thread that I remember:

Cheers Luma.

Your project turned out brilliantly.
Still looking for 'written' reference.

i.e, "Seventeen"

Thanks though.
