Well, the DWM Alphabet Commercial series started with suffix "i" in about 1922. They were 5 digit numeric before that.

If it really is an "h" something is seriously wrong.

I did my best to interpret what I could from your photo, which is unfortunately difficult to determine detail in.

We have a graphic of the script letters that DWM used in the FAQ PDF file. Take a look.
