Do you happen to know of a free dataset with handwritten English block capitals? If not, could you contribute to mine?

I'm currently working on a little OCR-related project, and I was quite surprised to find that there don't seem to be any free sets of scanned images of handwritten letters. Am I missing something?

I've already started gathering my own data set. Would some of you care to contribute, pretty please? I need something like this: scan at 300 DPI, try to make each letter at least 100 px high and place them 50 px apart (this corresponds to about 2 cm and 1 cm on paper). You don't have to write each letters six times: 2-3 are already greatly appreciated, but even one of each will be OK. If I manage to collect a good enough data set, I will make it public and free for anyone to use.

Thanks a lot!
