Description The six known signatures of en:William Shakespeare, labelled with origins
Source
  • This file is a composite of images from two sources: The fourth signature from the first page of the will is from Drake, Nathan, Shakespeare and his times: including the biography of the poet, Vol. 1 (1817), p. xiv, online at https://archive.org/stream/shakespeareandhi01drakuoft#page/n21/mode/2up. All the rest of the signatures were scanned by Tom Reedy from Thompson, Edward Maunde. Shakespeare’s Handwriting: A Study. Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1916., and enhanced using image software.
