Celebrity Handwriting: Alfred Hitchcock

Celebrity Signature: Alfred Hitchcock

Showmanship is clearly evident in the signature of Alfred Hitchcock with his profile above his name; it’s every bit as distinctive as the candelabra above Liberace’s signature.

Notice the bold underscore under the signature. This underscore signifies strong self-reliance. The loop at the end of the underscore is an additional flair.

The first and last name of the signature is joined, indicating fluidity of mind. This is evidence of talent both in writing and conveying his ideas to others. The capital ‘A’ is open at the top, further indicating Alfred Hitchcock’s ability to convey and share his ideas and thoughts with others.

The signature itself moves strongly upward on the page, indicating strong optimism. The high t-bar in his family name indicates Alfred’s high goals and further indicates he had no fear of stretching way out of his ‘comfort zone’ to achieve his goals.

The straight downstroke in the mid-point of the signature indicates strong determination. The ‘harpoon’ v-shape attached to the downstroke indicates ‘aggressiveness’, or the drive to go after what he wanted in life.

There is an ‘energy’ to this signature that indicates the energy, drive and charisma of the writer. All the letters are joined, indicating Alfred Hitchcock’s logical, sequential mind and his ability to solve problems.

The retraced letter ‘l’ in his first name indicates Mr. Hitchcock was quite particular about his ideas. The ‘pinched’ letter ‘o’ in his first and his family name suggests he was someone who did far more for others than he realized.

A talented signature denoting a very talented man!
