Is there an example of Switzerland handmarks available?
Olive Tree Answer: Hello Jan, Interesting question! Usually you find handmarks in official documents. Remember, handmarks were used in place of signatures. So look for any documents that required a signature - marriages, contracts, land deeds, military papers, and so on.
