A look at Anne Frank’s handwriting

You mentioned in your reply to a reader on the Anne Frank “diaries”, that

“As Professor Robert Faurisson has convincingly displayed, the handwriting is curiously different from postcards known (or claimed by the A.F. industry) to have been written by Anne.”

Perhaps it would be good to present the samples Faurisson had in mind. They are particularly damning, for they are dated. The attached facsimile comes from the book by Serge ThionVérité historique ou vérité politique?, Paris, 1980, page 297. It’s part of an appendix to Faurisson’s study “Le Journal d’Anne Frank est-il authentique?”
