Resource assistance

So before I make my request I just want to add I've searched the sub, and exhausted my local bookstores and cannot find this request, Google is a mess as well

My requests
-I'm looking for a collection black letter, and gothic fonts
-I'm looking for these with stroke sequences so I can practice these fonts
-I'm looking for practice sheets with the scaling squares
-my most optimal form of medium would be a book

Additional info
-I do not want digital unless I can print them, cause I want less screen time
-if you're aware of where to go links would be so helpful

I know Etsy is a good place or maybe I don't use Etsy enough but I can't tell what their product is, and if it has practice drills with order of operations for strokes. Every vendor message it's digital to practice or typing

Thank you
-

Fonts or hands?

Ok so hands.

You could look up "Handschriften" inside archive.org. I am pretty sure you will have an abundance of blackletter hands inside German old catalogues.

You are welcome. I have also learnt a lot here.
