About the font American Scribe

American Scribe is a flowing formal script in the Spencerian and copperplate tradition of nineteenth-century American penmanship. The strokes are thin, long and joined, with elaborate looped capitals that sweep across the line, a clear contrast between hairline and shaded downstrokes, and a steady rightward slant. The preview shows complete capitals, lowercase and figures, as well as extra ligatures and decorative glyphs among the symbols.

It calls up old ledgers, diplomas, certificates, bank notes, wedding invitations and period correspondence. It works at a generous size for names, titles, short quotations and certificates, on a pale, calm background. Because of the hairlines and wide capitals it is hard to read in small text or in all capitals, so keep to mixed case. Only Latin letters are covered.
