Why is the bert bigger than the other letters. It goes from left to right getting bigger and then smaller again. Is this a case of Machine Doubling and if so why didn't the other letters come out the same? Or could it just be extra thickness? Report this Post to the Staff

The uneven size of letters is probably due to wear.
