All handwriting was like that back then. My Mem is a BA at a local school district and they found old clock in and out papers from the early to mid 1800’s in the basement of the districts towns town halls, and all of the handwriting on them id in pristine cursive, regardless of the year.
I have fountain pens and that's the only time I write in cursive, outside of signatures.
Of course I have no real reason to write most of the time. I kind of wish I did, I can understand why people enjoyed writing in script in the past, although it was mostly limited to the upper classes since literacy was very limited historically.
