Hah yes. People we know.

The symbol is not in the copy i have of List of Monotype Founts and
Special Sorts at the University Press Oxford (1976), nor in Chaundy,
Barret & Batey "The Printing of Mathematics" (Oxford, 1957 edition).

Maybe it represents “Angle of lightning stroke” and instead of
mathematics will be found under Recreation, Kite Flying ?
