The painter drew rounded edges for all the other letters, even those which have top "corners" (like the hey). The second to last letter is not a shin. | |

| Feb 22, 2016 at 15:24 | comment | added | rosends | I only wonder if the person who painted it copied it from a print out which had a font problem. | |
