Should signatures be legible ? by Sasha Ward

The pale colours of the completed signatures panel look beautiful in front of the restricted light in the Brewhouse window, but it is difficult to see the lettering - incised with a diamond stylus then blackened with grate polish. Also, some people's signatures are not legible, maybe that's the point of them.

Above is a list of the names that I can read (without any of the additional comments, dates etc.) arranged in the blocks as they are in the panel. Illegibility is represented by ……… , and below are photographs, mostly in reflected light,  showing the dotted sections. If you signed, you should be able to find your name, click on any of the pictures to enlarge it.
