Braumandt or Braumandl, looks like to me. Lone signatures are often scribbly so it might be something more eccentric.

I don't need a link... I learned German that way. (But a scribble is a scribble is a scribble in any handwriting....)

Scribble is right I did'nt even begin to think it was Suetterlin

Thanks for your input

It isn't, really. It's a hybrid-- a "personal" style mixing letter forms-- must be an "m" after the "u" with the old fashioned superscript squiggle over the "u," but that's not an old style m. Can't be sure if it ends with a flourish at the end, or that is a downstroke t or l.

Rick you were right....

Ja ja. It helps to be 108 years old sometimes.
