Here's a question for all the howler owners: Does the text look printed, or hand written? I've been studying the prop that was posted and all the letters look so different from each other. Meaning- I can't find a bunch of letters that look like they match. All the "O"s look different, etc... If it really is printed from a font, it must have about 8-10 duplicates of each letter!
Kelly...I received mine today, and I have to admit!! It is really difficult to tell!  Or at least it is on my swatch. But if I had to guess, I would lean more towards the "printed" side of this question.

Mine has ink blobs too...but the majority of the letters still look like they were "printed" rather than hand written to me! I am still undecided!

Kelly, have you been able to determine whether it is print or hand written? I've been curious about this as well.

It definitely looks handwritten to me. I can see darker places in the N and at the tops of the Fs where the pen stopped or changed direction. It makes sense. Even if there were 20 copies of the letter, someone who does calligraphy for a living could whip those out in no time and have them look nearly identical. It would be a lot easier than making a font to print.

I got my Howler card today.  I wonder if you can imagine how amazing it looks in person. Compare it with the picture of the whole Howler below. I'm almost sure, the tiny part of the letter is from the W of "Weasley".  I have no idea what's the correct word for the "dark thing around the howler", but it's a nice fabric piece.

WOW what a nice card i agree it looks like the top of the W in Weasley. I am 4 boxes into a new case at the moment and have found 2 props so far one is a Floo powder and my mom pulled a Fawkes Feather which is really nice is has 2 feathers on it with a fluffy bit in the middle of the feathers, I will get scans up once i finish the case.
