Spencerian Script is a time-tested classic developed in 1848 by American educator and handwriting teacher Platt Rogers Spencer. Spencer believed that America needed a style of penmanship that could be written quickly, legibly and elegantly for both business correspondence and personal letter-writing. In 1848, Spencer, along with Victor M. Rice, published Spencer and Rice's System of Business and Ladies' Penmanship.

Spencerian Script became the standard across the United States and remained so until the 1920s when the popularity of the typewriter rose and became the preferred method of business communication.
