@katewagner.wehwalt.net 1928 Intertype ad (Linotype competitor/clone)
 Have Houses To Do
With News Faces?
A house without any contrast of structural lines is a barn. Atleast, that's what most folks would say.
A house that was painted the same color all over-any color-would be lifeless and unwanted, regardless of structural lines. Ask any real estate operator.
A house makes its appeal to the eye.
The same is true with a news face.
Type that has no relief in structural lines-type that is the same color all over-type that has insufficient contrast between high letters and low letters such type is low in readability.
Intertype IDEAL News Face is the
VARITONED Modern News Face that is modeled after the type that most of your readers were raised on-the type they first saw in their school booksthe type that most educators for many years have selected as the easiest type on the eyes.
Make sure that the news face on your newspaper is an asset for building good will toward your paper.
Don't be misled by first impressions.
Get all the facts about news faces especially those from the nearest office.
Then compare and decide.
ALL INTERTYPE MATRICES ARE STANDARD FOR OTHER SLUG CASTING MACHINES

Also, it's time again to share the pics I took at the WTC's Path platform around 3AM, right before 9/11; there were closed-circuit TVs that showed train activity for commuters, but since there was none late at night, someone "in the booth" would play footage from a chicken coop on one of the sets

News to me
Washington Post article screenshot with “We know sun exposure is unhealthy” highlighted:

Kennedy's tan, like the glow of his would-be boss, Trump, is unnatural, probably chemically enhanced. That absurd t, cinematic shade may be the point: We know sun exposure is unhealthy, yet we see a tan, however faux, as "heanthy." Just as we know members of Kennedy's family have disavowed him and his beliefs — yet he is the picture of a Kennedy.

When you watch news/reality/doco and they disguise a car's license plate, which do you prefer? - Simple blur (distracting?) - Realistically remove it (weird?) - Realistically replace it with a fictitious plate (would that distract in the sense that you worry they didn't hide it?)

70% Hispanic: Harris –37%, Trump +55%
70% Black: Harris –21%, Trump. +46%

Canceling congestion pricing under your own president to “reconsider” and then deciding you have to ram it through quick before the republicans take over is the most Democrat move of all time.
