@Ben Bates:When I tell people that picture fonts interest me, they often call me a dingbat!

... tell'm to call you fontbat ... :)

To me it looks more like a brush script variation/modification. Very heavy outlines and shades and the tail of the G cut-off. And on top of that also slanted.

Can't you make a better scan? Because, as always, rubbish in, rubbish out ...

I scan it @ 1000 dpi, the image is only 1 inch across. I'll try to find a better version somewhere. I agree that it is a mod of a font, in illustrator, I plan to convert text to outlines, and work with that, but I still need a good jump off font.
Yeah, fontbat, that's the ticket...

I found a better image, whew!

Still Stumped, any one, anyone. Hel-lo, is this thing on... tap tap tap...

Why did you delete your first post?

Bad image. Thought that later one was better. Didn't want it to get ignored due to poor quality. Cuz, a wise person once told me, rubbish in, rubbish out...

congratulations! see it is solved ...
