Help with NJG/3 signature please
 
Good morning folks,

I recently obtained the Flugbuch to Oberfeldwebel Walter Neuhaus of 7/NJG3. KIA in a Feindflug against floating balloons on 23 Jul 42 in BF110 C4 D5+IR wr3212. The last but one page of his Flugbuch has the following signature and I wonder if anyone recognises it? Thank you.

The handwriting in this Flugbuch is perfection! It's almost as if this is computer-generated.

Yeah I get your point as it is written immaculately throughout, but it is very definitely handwritten and has the usual stamps, also coming with an embossed personalised cover. It was very cheap though and finishes a month before his death, which would imply to me that he completed it himself on a monthly basis.

This is a clean Normschrift, taught at engineering schools to be used for exact plan drawings without using writing templates. The owner of this FB must have had such a educational background.

Thanks Roland - I believe the Pilot was a prewar Lufthansa airline pilot so you may well be correct.

Thanks for that explanation, I thought it looked very like a Rotring alphabet stencil that I have.
