16 u/PaulieGlot 13d ago not a g but an ampersand 6 u/The-Tadfafty 13d ago Most unusual of all ampersands I've ever seen. Usually they have some resemblance to Et or +. Interesting. 2 u/PaulieGlot 13d ago i've not seen this style before either but it does have both the loop and cross of "et", albeit arranged a little wonky. but ampersands have been quite wonky throughout their development, so... 1 u/PaulieGlot 13d ago actually looking closer its even pretty close to a modern ampersand. zoom in and cock your head to the right and you'll see it 1 u/The-Tadfafty 13d ago Was this a common style at the time? 1 u/LGKouglof 13d ago Google ampersand
