I might as well weigh in, too !

Ed,as you know, I read and wrote a review of your book - noting I disagreed with you on certain aspects.

On of the things I disagreed with was your analysis od the handwriting-which I believe is quite consistent with the sort of printing one finds on hand-lettered posters.

I also think - but am not well enough informed to be sure-that the "doodling" you mention in the letters is,perhaps,not doodling, but an indication the writer was accustomed to one of the Germanic scripts.
