I collected a couple of dozen ascenders but unfortunately it was a long time ago before I started keeping track of folio numbers.


There's one with dots inside the curlicues, one with an unusual curlicue, a couple with stripes instead of dots, a couple with dots.

There are also some that I strongly suspect are "combination" gallows. Instead of putting two side-by-side, I suspect what they represent is two or sometimes three ascenders stacked one on top of the other—another topic I was going to blog about but can't due to insufficient time (very frustrating).


When I was collecting them, I separated them into three groups, embellished, combination, and straddle ascenders but I never posted it because I needed to hunt up the folio numbers and double-check everything, so I'm posting it here in raw, unchecked form (these are only examples, there are quite a few in the collection that aren't included):
