In This Issue: Editorial Last issue, we presented an ITC Open Forum on Typeface Design Protection and You. This time around we continue the forum, elaborating on this subject of the utmost importance to users and buyers of ITC (instead of "similar to") typefaces. Pg. 2. Pro. Files:The Great Graphic Innovators Continuing our popular series of insights into the personalities and artistry of the industry giants, this time featuring the exceptional work of Mehemed Fehmy (Dr.) Agha and Lou (CBS) Dorfsman. Pg. 4. AnthrApology Pandora's box is opened again, and out pops'an amusing menagerie by Lou Myers of not-so-subtle monkey business. Pg. 10. Ms. Christine Bassery Our Ms. lady this issue has dedicated herself totally to illustration, where her imaginative and expert technical facility has been seen in advertising, magazines, and (most especially) children's books. Pg. 12. Going Baroque No. 6 in our series of Very Graphic Crossword Puzzles goes musical, as Al McGinley and Don McKechnie go for baroque in this pizzicato pi,z1ler. Pg. 14. An Old Style Happy New Year! It's that time of the year when we pause to wish our readers the very happiest of holidays—this year in the form of a calendar: William Nicholson's "Almanac of Twelve Sports." Pg. 16. "An Alphabet" Our diligent editors leave no alphabet unturned in their persistent search for uncommon ones. The focus this time is on an 1897 creation by Nicholson. Pg. 20. Something For Everybody Here we go again with a spreadful of absorbing trivia. Our popular feature returns with a potpourri of brain-litter: ephemeral, evanescent, equivocal—and definitely fun for everybody. Pg. 22. Something From Everybody Praise is nice; unsolicited praise is nicer. In a sharing mood, we present a pageful or two of the charmingly illustrated encomiums that continue to reach us. Pg. 24. A Manner Of Speaking Have you ever wondered how you would feel if not one person in the whole world could understand what you were trying to say? For the estimated one and a half million non-vocal children and adults so physically handicapped, there is a hopeful answer in the symbolic language system of Charles Bliss. Pg. 26. What's New From ITC? ITC Benguiat Book Condensed, Medium Condensed, and Bold Condensed, and their corresponding italics are the new typefaces from ITC (available to the public on or after January 15), which only licensed ITC Subscribers are authorized to reproduce, manufacture, and offer for sale. Pg. 30. My Favorite 5,6,7 & 9 Letter Words A visually exciting presentation by Herb Lubalin, demonstrating the practical and esthetic effectiveness of ITC Benguiat Condensed in all its forms. Pg. 32. TYPEFACE DESIGN PROTECTION AND YOU (An ITC Open Forum Ifyou choose an ITC typeface and want to be sure you get it, Askfor it like this: ITC Bookman Light Italic (Remember to include ITC as part of the typeface name.) Why bother? Because... There are "similar to"versions of ITC typefaces on the market. If your job is set in one of them: You are getting composition from second-generation art orfrom copies of otherfonts. Only licensed ITC Subscribers make their fonts from ITC's original art. No royalties are paid to the designer of an ITC typeface by those advertising "similar to"versions. ITC pays royalties to the designer for every font sold by its licensed Subscribers. What does the purchase of "similar to"versions of ITC fonts cost you? A reduction in the variety, quality and availability of new typeface designs. The best typeface designers, everywhere in'the world, will not design new typefaces if the opportunity for adequate incomefrom them is denied. What do genuine ITC typefaces cost you in dollars? To you, as a user or specifier of typefaces, virtually nothing. There is a one-time royalty on ITC typefaces which varies with the kind ' of machine or material on which theface will appear: For many text typesetting machines the one-time ITC royalty is $30.00 for onc typeface which can be reproduced in a full size range and which can be used on hundreds ofjobs, and which can lastfor as long as thefilmfont remains usable, which can be for years. No further royalty is ever paid by anyone for the use of an ITC typeface after it has been purchased. If, however, one penny were to be added to each dollar's worth of typesetting sold by a typesetter, after $3,000 worth of typesetting the royalty would befully recovered. 3 Pere are two ways to re sure you get a genuine TC typeface from your typesetter when you order it Vhen you receive the proof of yourjob, check the guideline on the )ottom listing the typefaces used If genuine ITC typefaces were tsed, they should be listed here. If the guideline does not list"ITC" n front of the typeface name, insist on this from your typographer. Vithout it you may only be getting a"similar to "version of an TC alphabet f you are purchasing ITC fonts, be sure to buy them only from the tuthorized manufacturers listed on this page. )nly the following Subscriber Companies are licensed to manufacture and sell ITC typefaces: cldressograph-Multigraph rp., Varityper Division Mt.

He was very,very important, and he did all sorts of things for Vogue of enormous advantage to it.He was aggravating. It was part of his spirit.If you stood up to him, he admired it. I adored him:' There is a fascination for me that this articulate talented Turk came to NewYork via pre-Hitler Berlin, generated a series of anti-Hitler covers and cartoons for Vanity Fair. Had he voiced a personal political point of view? A Conde Nast colleague: "I never discussed politics with him. He never offered any opinions:' Cipe Burtin: "He didn't talk about politics. He revealed his politics by what he encouraged to be put on the covers of Vanity Fain" A friend said: "He thought man has not changed since the day of the creation. The thing that protects a nation is that certain blocs (unions) can blow off steam (strikes) like a furnace that has a valve to allow excess heat to escape.If we didn't have that, we'd have the French Revolution!" At Cond6 Nast,Agha was up to his pastepot in female colleagues. How did they work together— the women and this monocled aesthete,with his snuff and red bandana handkerchief? Ms. Burtin: The editors and copywriters at Vogue were women.Agha seemed to enjoy working with women, seemed to have a profound understanding of their status in society.I got the impression, in my case, he was trying to make me more aggressive when he suggested I apply for membership in the all-male Art Directors Club:' From one of those Vogue editors: "His point of view was that no woman was as important as a man.Compared to a man who was a fool, a foolish woman was more so.He wouldn't fight for an editorial point with a man and show the same annoyance with which he'd fight a woman:' Dr.Agha was an inspirational influence on his co-workers in the graphics field. The quality of his fourteen years at Conde Nast is eternally documented in the permanently expanded role of the executive-designer. Boundaries have been dissolved in editorial content and visual concept due to Agha's adamant determination towards perfection. Agha, the popular platform speaker was a disarming conversationalist."He was fun, full of jokes and marvelous sarcastic remarks:' Again, the enigma: A characteristic point of view, deeply personal, achingly poignant: "I'm a stranger in a strange land, just visiting.

Graphis, Industrial Design, Fortune, CA, Print, American Artists, Mademoiselle,Type Talks, Graphic Design (Japan), Idea (Japan), Gebrauchs-Graphic (Germany), Pagina (Italy) A few treasured friendships are woven of the warped woofs of life, hidden are the surprise gaps where threads have missed. In my precious friendship with this graphics pacesetter, I know well that he prefers pot roast to beef Wellington.The surprise is that I don't know if he prefers Piero to Picasso. In the more than 30 years of our relationship, I and my friend, the consummate professional, have not had, until now, an in-depth philosophical discussion, at once personal and impersonal, subjective and objective.In tribute, and to mend the fabric, this profile of Louis Dorfsman. Now a member of the Board of Trustees of the Cooper Union, after high school graduation, Lou opted to study bacteriology at NXU. "NYU in those days was a big $300 tuition. It was out of the question, not because my father couldn't afford it, but he wouldn't spring for that much bread.My option was to join his sign-painting business, but we really didn't hit it off.I loved to draw- isn't that how we all started? so I took Cooper Union's exam simply" because admittance meant a free art education of high calibre:: In front of the entire 7th-grade class, this Senior Vice President, Creative Director of Marketing Communications and Design, CBS Broadcast Group, heard himself described with opprobrium by his teacher. "What he said was,`Hey your- that's the way he addressed us -`You write a composition about the Bronx Zoo: Since I then lived a stone's throw from the Bronx Zoo, my rejoinder was,`Everybody knows about the Bronx Zoo-it's a dull subject: It's not a dull subject-you're just a dull bastard; he said, and was absolutely right.What he said made an unforgettable impact on me.Since then I have never approached any problem or subject with a preconceived notion that it was dull and had to remain so.I try to take the familiar and ordinary to a level of interest:' Innovative, up-to-the minute conceptual mover of tastes, though he be, Lou is easily humbled by any one of the great periods in the history of the arts. "No one art form really grips me more than any other.I constantly find myself awed at the incredible works of man. I am always left overwhelmed.Great_expressions of the human mind absolutely devastate me at the same time they inspire me beyond measure:" - matter are handled internally in most corporations while advertising, particularly consumer advertising, is produced outside by advertising agencies. Here at CBS we do it all inside the house.Until very recently, about 50% of my efforts were spent on print advertising, consumer and trade-and-institutional.The evidence of that is in every issue of TV Guide and in newspapers throughout the country. About 900 ads a year are created.Additionally, there is a massive output for on-air promotion trailers and radio spots, numbering close to 3,000 annually "I think we all have a strong desire,as professionals, to produce what we and our peers regard as good work- intelligent, logical, provocative-one's professional best. The articulate introspection continues "I held eleven jobs, I think, before I came td CBS. It wasn't as though I couldn't hold them.I didn't want to. I considered these jobs as practical extensions of my formal design education.As soon as I felt I had learned all I could at one place, IMoved on.And then CBS and I found each other. It's been a record-setting association in many ways-32 years of tenure, for one. "The CBS experience is unique.There is no other corporation that comes to mind that structures its advertising and design functions as we do.Traditionally, public relations and promotional subject "CBS has a long tradition of excellence.

Here you are, an A-1 student of the graphic arts. You attend all your classes, arrive thoroughly prepared, pay the most careful attention to what's being taught. You are determined to be—if riot the greatest designer of the century—second best at the least. And so you diligently do everything you're supposed to do to achieve that end. And yet somehow you come up empty. Your work isn't up to par, isn't even passable. Fact, it stinks. Seated right next to you, on the other hand, is another type of student. Incorrigible. Misses half the classes, never comes prepared, doesn't pay attention and couldn't care less. But (and there's the rub). He has something else. He has talent. His work is first rate, downright magnificent. Which is just the case with our Ms. lady this issue. In short, her Art teacher could never understand how anyone—so willing and with so much potential—could nonetheless be so persistently mediocre. Having passed her literary baccalaureate, Christine Bassery then passed her entrance examination at the National Art School of Nice at the ripe old age of 20. She chose the Graphic Arts curriculum, with an option for Audio-Visual. But she seldom attended the lectures, preferring the intimacy of the library where she could draw uninterrupted for her own enjoyment. Expelled twice from school because of her obvious lack of discipline (as well as her non-attendance), she was nevertheless readmitted each time due to the exceptional quality of her work. Self-taught for three years and the proud owner of her personal portfolio, she made the cavalier decision to leave school and head for Paris, where she has now been working for three years. Starling as a stylist for Michel Axel, she soon dedicated herself totally to illustration where her artistry has appeared in advertising, magazines, and books (most especially children's books). Among the outstanding publications that have printed her illustrations are Elle, Cosmopolitan, Film Francais, Grasset, and New York Magazine. Still her greatest pleasure is to draw for herself. Which is fine with us judging from the pleasure we've received looking at this highly imaginative work enhanced by amazing technical facility. Like murder, talent will out And, as this spread will attest, Christine Bassery is clearly loaded with it. 14 Consider the Baroque. It comes in three basic forms: High, Middle and Low. Great composers fill each period. Geniuses like Bach, Handel,Vivaldi,Telemann. Bach and Handel are High Baroque.Vivaldi and Telemann are Middle Baroque. Corelli is low Baroque. Trouble is, people keep referring to Baroque music as classical music. They're wrong. Beethoven is classical music (he's also the first name in Romantic music.) Mozart is classical music. So is Haydn. Stravinsky is 20th century music, but not modern music because he wrote 70 years ago. If you're talking modern music, you're talking about someone like John Cage. Now back to Baroque. Bach was constantly going Baroque because he had to feed and raise 22 children. As a matter of fact, most of the Baroque composers ended up just that way, since the do-re-mi of the period came in on a rather small scale. There's more to tell, but my typewriter just went Baroque. It's stuck in the key of CCCCCCC. 15 No. 6 in a series of Very Graphic Crossword Puzzles by Al McGinley and Don McKechnie 7. ACROSS 1. Debussy's "La 4. "Tubby 8.

It's that time of year when we pause to wish our readers the very happiest of holidays. This year we thought we'd present our readers— not one card, but twelve in the form of a calendar. And, the world having gone sports crazy of late, what more fitting subject for our greeting than a sports calendar, each month featuring a different sport? AnAlmanac of twelve Sports ByWilliamNicholson 17 In the world of words, sports exerts upon our language an influence that is far more flamboyant than that of other fields. It is more of a creator, and its innovations are more picturesque and carry a greater imitation appeal. Few people are fully aware how many of the words and expressions of our common colloquial language stem from sports. To play ball comes from baseball, sudden death from football, crestfallen from cock-fighting, neck and neck from horse racing, straight from the shoulder, prize fighting; stymied comes from golf caught napping from baseball, behind the eight ball from billiards, and so on.

This time around, the focus is on 'An Alphabet" created in 1897 by William Nicholson, whose Christmas Almanac of Sports appears elsewhere in this issue. Born in 1872, William Nicholson was highly influential in revolutionizing the course of graphic art in the nineties.Together with brotherin-law James Pryde (as the Beggarstaff Brothers) they evolved a new form of poster art in marked contrast to the tedious engravings then characteristic of the Victorian period— a form which combined groups ar- 11 forMilkmai d 2. v* AIP- TiMidicsiriarrait. 21 of three or four colors around a central silhouette. Recommended to publisher William Heinemann by fine artist James Whistler, Nicholson designed Heinemann's enduring windmill colophon—thereby launching a long collaboration between the two, during which time he illustrated five works: "Sports Almanac," "Twelve Portraits," "London Types,"The Square Book of Animals: and 'An Alphabet." The last, the first book to appear, contains the 26 portraits shown here, one for each letter of the alphabet, with a self-portrait as the first plate. Nicholson's inventiveness went beyond illustrative artistry in his selection of provocative subjects for each letter. A for Artist was easy, but 0 for Ostler and X for Xylographer— that took some doing. Nicholson cut the illustrations himself on woodblocks— printing from the actual blocks, which he then colored by hand. A large part of the edition, published in the United States by Alan Wofsy Fine Arts of San Francisco, consists of color lithographs after the woodcuts. In 'An Alphabet" and the subsequent works, Nicholson refined the original Beggarstaff concept— making his impact on the development of graphic art in the 20th century before his 30th birthday. Knighted in 1936, he continued his extraordinary work until his death in 1949, leaving his son (artist Ben Nicholson) to carry on in the great tradition. 22 Something For Everybody From U&lc OuttiTheitOiviederberOteffunOnitter What is the most widely reproduced and distributed painting in the world? The 'Mona Lisa'? No. The 'Last Supper'? Uh-uh. The single most widely reproduced and distributed painting in history is none other than 'The Four Freedoms' by Norman Rockwell. A few issues back, we printed the longest sentence in English— running a full two pages, single-spaced, and in 8-point type from James Joyce's Ulysses. The longest word, of course, is SMILES (since, as the riddle has it, there is a mile between the first and last letter). Shakespeare's longest word (27 letters) appears in Love's Labour's Lost where Costard the clown says to Moth the page: '7 marvel thy master hath not eaten thee for a word; for thou art not so long by the head as honorificabilitudinitatibus."

Pope Boniface VIII wanted to employ the greatest artist in Italy to work on St. Peter's. Nobody in Rome had ever heard of Giotto, but his local neighbors thought he was pretty good and told the papal envoy as much.The latter paid a call on Giotto. "Let's have a sample of your work:' he said patronizingly. Giotto laughed, dipped his brush in a bucket of red paint, and drew a circle.The papal messenger thought he was kidding, but Giotto told him that was it.Typical artist... No more samples. When the Pope looked at the circle, he said: "Get that man; anyone who can draw a perfect circle freehand like that is a genius:' That started Giotto on the road to immortality.

Sk e 26 Blissymbo forthe Hand' AManner of Speakin Next to the problem of world peace, the issue of a world language is paramount in international affairs. Educators and sociologists envisage a link between the two and suggest that, if we can once achieve a single language for the world, peace will naturally follow in its wake. Even if we reject the possibility that an international language would lead to a decrease in international conflict, the desirability of such a language at this stage of the world's affairs is nevertheless undeniable. Not only would diplomacy, commerce, tourism, education, science, religion, and the arts benefit, but there would be fuller enjoyment of life and more opportunity for the pursuit of happiness. What is it, then, that prevents our taking the fateful step in the direction of a world, or universal, tongue? Nothing except the question of just what that tongue is to be. There have been many serious attempts to find this world tongue, with Esperanto and Interlingua establishing themselves as the two frontrunners. Esperanto is simple in its sounds and structure, thoroughly logical, and reasonably international — provided we restrict our views of what constitutes internationality to the western world, the Latin world, the Germanic and Greek worlds. But these are days when Slavic and Oriental and Third World nations are forging rapidly ahead and demanding their place in the sun side by side with the countries of the West. To the speechhabits of the Russian, the Chinese, the Japanese, and the African, Esperanto makes practically no concession. Interlingua, the much publicized product of a group of outstanding linguists—who have labored over this problem for decades — is even less satisfactory from a truly international point of view, since it is merely a compromise between Latin-Romance and English. The real obstacle to the adoption of a constructed language seems to be the covert opposition of the world's major governments, who find it expedient to keep their citizens isolated behind linguistic iron curtains for purposes of internal control and propaganda. From the standpoint of suitability and adaptability, English has thoroughly proved itself. It is precise and concise • for commercial use at the same time that it is capable of infinite distinction of shades and meaning for literary purposes. Its vocabulary is not only the most abundant in the world, but the most international as well of all, existing major national languages — more international, in fact, than that of Esperanto. The further spreading of English, despite the language's obvious advantages, is impeded by precisely the same psychological factors that obstruct the increase of foreignlanguage learning among English speakers. Children learn languag6 easily and naturally, but adults do not. The learning of another language at the grown-up stage is fraught with difficulties, as anyone who has taken up a language in high school or college or afterwards can testify. There have been many attempts to simplify the English language, not the least of which is the language system developed by U&lc's own Ed Rondthaler—Soundspel — an ingenious phonetic arrangement which spells out words according to their sound. Yet, little attention has been given to an area more heartbreakingly lacking in communication — a language for the seriously handicapped who cannot communicate at all. Have you ever wondered how you would feel if not one person in the whole world could understand what you were trying to say? For the estimated one and a half million nonvocal children and adults so physically handicapped, this is not a rhetorical question. It represents an agonizing frustration which must be dealt with every day of their lives. These one and a half million handicapped have never spoken or, because of an injury, will probably never speak again. Among them are some one hundred and fifty thousand victims of cerebral palsy — a disability which causes neuromuscular incoordination due to brain damage occurring before, during, or after birth.The victim may suffer from poor muscular coordination or muscle spasms that seriously interfere with movement. The speech and voice lack precision and speed and, frequently, cannot be understood at all by any listener. They are left with only undifferentiated guttural sounds and grossly feeble gestures to use in relaying their thoughts to others. For an alert individual to be unable to communicate with others because his speech is not understandable is the ultimate frustration. This is especially significant with the palsy victims, where their multiple and severe physical handicaps preclude the substitution of other avenues of communication (such as writing or the use of sign language). Although they appear to be subnormal because of their physical appearance and distorted speech patterns, an indicative statistic is that more than one-half of these victims have normal, and even above-normal, intelligence. Children, particularly, who cannot express themselves to their parents, lose control over their environment. If they cannot respond to their teacher, they cannot participate in class discussions. If they cannot exchange expression with other children, they become morose. Thus unable to communicate at all, such children become understandably isolated, passive, and totally dependent. This was the depressing situation until a revolutionary invention begun in 1942 by Charles Bliss was brought to breakthrough fruition in 1971. Created as a universal, nonverbal language based on early Chinese picto-ideographs, Blissymbolics was discovered and adapted for use with the nonspeaking handicapped child at the Ontario Crippled Children's Center in Toronto. The symbols are a visual, meaning-based communication system capable of conveying all aspects of human experience. Due to the underlying logic of the system, basic symbol elements can be used to construct simple and corn- pound variations which provide a vocabulary of infinite size. Blissymbols have changed the entire communications outlook of physically handicapped persons of a wide age and intellectual range—with great strides now being successfully taken at speech-language pathology centers throughout the United States with the mentally handicapped, deaf, autistic, aphasic, and stroke patient populations. A major advantage of the system is that the ability to read is not a prerequisite. It allows users at the pre-reading level not just to identify and ask for simple concrete objects, but also to think and question and express themselves. In short, to be able to communicate effectively and at will through the use of symbols. Charles Bliss was born in Austria of the Hapsburg Empire where, he says, ten different nationalities "hated each other because they thought and spoke in different languages"When Hitler came to power, Bliss (a Jew) was sent to Dachau and, later, Buchenwald — from which, with the help of friendly guards, he made an incredible escape.Arriving in Shanghai from Britain in 1942, he found the key to what would become his life's work. While in China, he observed that although the Chinese might have difficulty in understanding each other's dialect, they had no trouble at all when reading—for their script was based on standardized symbols. To Bliss, this was the clue: what if someone could invent a language system based not on sound but on meaning — a system removed from a phonetic base that could surmount all cultural barriers? He thought he was onto something. Interned by the Japanese in 1943, he emigrated after the war to Australia where he buried himself in working out this idea. Six years later, in 1949, he completed his opus, a three volume manuscript titled Semantography, the book that is both the rationale of and the text for his language system. Bliss's aim was for a system that was complete: he wanted to provide the world with a symbol system capable of conveying any meaning. To that end, he incorporated pictographs, ideographs, and arbitrary symbols into a cohesive, logical, and simple system — a system whose direct reference to meaning made it easily learned. Bliss uses only 100 basic symbols (shown here), relating to meaning rather than sound. But he combines them to make thousands of meanings. Often they imitate the things they stand for, or at least provide visual clues. The system is concise, logical, and downright fun—especially for children. It facilitates the expression of concepts and abstractions, rather than allowing only the limited concrete responses which can be expressed by a picture. The system has an advantage over the manual communication of the deaf in that the use of symbols need not be restricted to those selected message receivers who understand the system, as is true for sign language. Each Blissymbol is always displayed in combination with a written word, representing the concept expressed by the symbol. This enables the symbol user to communicate with anyone in his environment. Intended message receivers need not learn the Bliss system in order to understand the nonvocal communicator's message—they simply read the words displayed with the symbols. The visual simplicity of the symbols makes them quickly and easily learned. They can be arranged on a "symbol board" to suit the needs of the individual. Because the display is portable, communication is possible in everyday living for both wheelchair users and those who are mobile. Another advantage over sign language is that the use of Blissymbols is not restricted by a symbol user's physical impairments. For those who cannot point to their symbol display, remote-control devices can be used to indicate the desired symbols. Levers, knobs, touch paddles and, recently, video screen keys activate switches that control either a pointer or tiny lights that illuminate the symbols as they are selected. 27 Parents of the vocally handicapped have reported that, with the symbols, their children do not have to resort to temper tantrums or any other unsocial way to indicate displeasure. They are able to analyze their own feelings and express them with their symbols, allowing for a much better understanding of themselves. Socially, symbol users are able to interact with a wider range of people.The child's ability to interact on a social level with others and to communicate with an interested stranger will go a long way in helping to correct the public's misconception that cerebral palsy and its accompanying speech problems are synonymous with severe mental retardation. And it is not only the public that has misconceptions. At the Ontario Crippled Children's Center—which was one of the original experimenters with Blissymbolics — Charles Bliss was told of one little girl who was taught to use his symbol board. One of her first questions to her parents was: "Why are you not speaking to me?" The mother and father were utterly shaken. Both were truly loving parents who just hadn't understood that their daughter desperately needed people to talk to her, eveh though she had been unable to respond. Before the symbol breakthrough, another parent recalled having lived through seven years of heartbreak. "My daughter would try so hard to tell us things. She'd make guttural sounds and we'd all strain to catch the idea. Finally, in total frustration, she would bang her wheelchair tray, put her head down and cry uncontrollably. We all felt so helpless:' Now— having learned the Bliss system—her daughter smiles, holds up her finger for attention, and just points to her board. Today, there are more than twenty-five hundred Americans using the Blissymbols —with many hundreds more exploring their use, especially in the areas of nonverbal cerebral palsied and mentally retarded persons of varying ages and disabilities. With these populations, the symbols are used primarily to provide a means of communication — although they may also be used to foster cognitive development and assist in developing reading readiness skills. To a lesser extent, they are being used with autistic children and children with severe articulatory difficulties and expressive language deficits. There are those of us in the graphic arts who at times get carried away with the "importance" of our work. We would do well to give a little thought to the wonder workings of Charles Bliss. Communications is an essential of the human condition. It is the vital link to understanding. As Bliss himself puts it: "We can cry a billion tears,write a thousand words, pass a hundred laws...but, still, understanding JACK ANSON MIKE begins with communication:' afternoon Saturday winter brOwn and, also into dear similar (to) argue (to) close E Y A 01 . 12 day 07 January 04 4. birthday °10 white ± around maybe v >1 goodbye e Z Y 11= similar sound o->! 4-.— (to) ask (to) comb A A F D1 0 hour February 0 + 2 0 pibk at 0? none, nothing 0<----> hello f z zero 117_2 how 111 (to) be LLJ (to) combine A Christmas 13 0 D2 March 04t Easter 0I0 black backward 1 off, away 0-> on 1411 6 no ? what v (to) be caused by H (to) comfort A month D morning D4 May • '00t holiday . 00 orange 1>? or% intfo se. - 11 2 three ? what thing 11> (to) become A T)4 (to) continue A nonsense!

The ITC Benguiat series now takes its place as a multiple-application design. All the imaginative flair evident in the original normal widths has been skillfully retained in the condensed. In true character the lively shapes are set down with unfailing sensitivity to contemporary design requirements. Ordinarily a condensed face is used either to maintain size in a reduced space or to accommodate more copy in the same space. There is a third use, however that is equally important but not infrequently overlooked: to increase size without increasing area. A block of copy set in 9-point ITC Benguiat Book leaded two points will fill precisely the same area when set solid in 11-point ITC Benguiat Book Condensed. The net visual gain is very significant. For this vigorous new series a useful and distinguished typographic role is confidently predicted.

Herb, who is almost as concerned with the look of a word as he is with its meaning, has always had an insatiable desire to pick out his eight favorite words in the English language—graphically speaking—and transform them into an exciting visual presentation. Additionally, he has always had an unquenchable need to pore through Webster's Standard Dictionary from cover to cover.

Now, however, the real job started. How to pare all this down to eight words? Left to his own devices, Herb rolled up his sleeves and went to work. Those words that were clearly less graphically stimulating than others were (after careful comparison) rejected. Others, such as phlegm (one of Herb's all-time favorites), fell by the wayside. Still others, of unusual meaning—such as adipyl, naphtha, cudgel, and fipple; gingko, heptyl, kabyle, and hoigh; idgah, kilhig, quahog, and zygote; et cetera—while familiar to one and all, had to go because they did not meet the set criteria. Thus, with some 80 words remaining to choose from, our intrepid editor felt it incumbent upon him to design all 80 in order to come up with the ideal final 8 seen illustrated on the following pages. Insomuch as ileac is now being published abroad, the words appear along with accompanying definitions and translations into French and German. Which was a whole other story. French presented no problem, but German —there was the rub. Take a simple English word like Archie Bunker's "stifle." In French, it's an elegant "aouffer." In German, however, it's zurackdrangen. Orlypify." In French, it's "figurer." In German, it comes up versinnbildlichen. Or finally "gypsy." In French, 'gipsy." In German, Zigeuner. You get the idea. In any event, we invite your participation. If you have any pet words (sorry, four-letter ones unacceptable), just design them in any ITC Typeface of your choice and send them in to us (no smaller than 144 pt., please). Should we find what we get sufficiently stimulating, we will publish them in a forthcoming issue. Further to challenge your imagination, we are publishing the entire list of words from which we made our selection and from which you may not borrow. If you get stuck, you might send out a May Day to Rhoda Sparber. But we wouldn't advise it. & J.A.E 33 scaeab 1.

But this entire ad was set in Garamond. Garamond was around before George Washington was around. What updates an old typeface is what has happened in typography in the last eighteen years. Eighteen years ago, you could have driven a pica ruler through the letterspacing in the headline. Photo Typositor composition changed that. It also saved hundreds of typomaniac art directors thousands of dollars in razor blades every year. Because it overcame the spacing limitations of metal, phototypography created unheard of type flexibility. We already said this ad was set in Garamond. 16 on 14 Garamond, minus 1/2 set. Minus 1/2 set? Eighteen years ago that would have sounded like the New N Math. 16 on 14? Minus leading, too? Eighteen years ago, that was impossible, outrageous, and probably sinful as well. Eighteen years ago, what phototypography can do would probably have been called unreadable. But you're still reading this ad, aren't you? And thousands of other people are reading ads composed this way. Most type houses can now give you phototypography, typositor strips, minus leading and minus settings. So why. is Frederic Ryder Company trying to make it sound like we have a corner on the market? Because, humbly, we had a bigger hand in it than most. If there's a picture in the ad, you might In the eighteen years we keep talking about, our notice hair length or clothes have changed a little bit. reputation for pacesetting in typography has grown.

"The economic instability was making me very unhappy," she recalls. And so, seven years after graduating from college with a fine arts degree, she enrolled at the Art Institute of Houston to put her talents to commercial use. Today, two years later, she has seen the.Design School education pay off. She has worked in both promotion and production at the Houston Chronicle, drawn ads and illustrations for Shell Oil and done artwork for both magazines and TV. But she has not abandoned her fine arts muse. Recently, for example, she had an exhibit of her wildlife drawings. PORTFOLIO REVIEW DRAWS CROWDS, JOB OFFERS FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.—The September graduating class at the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale had a headstart on the job market this year. The night before graduation, a huge reception and portfolio review was held, and over 200 prospective employers appeared to view the work and interview the graduates on the spot. The show apparently paid off. Less than three months later, over 75 percent of the graduates are working in art-related fields, many of them at jobs that came from contacts made at the show. Advertising agencies, consumer product firms and department stores are some of the concerns which have added recent AIFL graduates to their payrolls because of the review. According to Employment Assistance Director Erlaine Pitts, the show impressed upon students "the importance of having a clean, professional portfolio—the value of a good presentation." COLORADO INSTITUTE GRAD JAMES SELAK HOLDS PRIZE-WINNING XEROX DESIGN. DESIGNER GIVES XEROX AN ORIGINAL LOOK ROCHESTER, N.Y.—The trademark of this graphic designer is winning honors. Colorado Institute of Art graduate James Selak received several awards in 1978 for the handsomely stylized package, literature and trademark designs which he created for-Xerox. The senior designer received four gold medals for entries at the 5th annual conference of the Industrial Graphics International. He was honored by the AIGA for his work in designing corporate literature, and Graphics: New York awarded him a DESI. Selak terms his Colorado training invaluable. "It taught me what to expect in the professional world and gave me a solid design and production background to handle whatever came my way." , JOB RECRUITERS.

Forget whatever bugs you about transfer letter sheets. Waste. Flaking letters. Slow, awkward juggling of large pages. Misaligned letters. Accidental transferring of letters with your hand. Instead of sheets, MECANORMA letters come in handy-sized rigid cardboard frames. A cardboard backing protects each against damage in the file, and up to the moment you use it. Afterward, too, because you re-use the backing. MECANORMA transfer cards are also faster and easier to use. Each line contains the entire alphabet, up to 20 pt. size. Just align the cardedge with a ruler or Tsquare, then slide the card back and forth as you do each letter. Because the carrier is raised off the surface, only the letter you apply comes in Cardboard backing protects contact with your work letters from damage. surface. Letters don't accidentally rub off.

They both set beautiful type. The big difference between them is that he has years of professional experience behind him, and yet she — after only a couple hours instruction — can match him word for word with the AlphaComp. It's here. No two ways about it. Like it or not, the new technology in typography is with us and the industry is undergoing a complete change-over in typesetting services. And, as usual, the Alphatype Corporation is in the forefront of any change. The AlphaComp is a $10,000 direct-input phototypesetting system that produces the highest typographic quality by automating all the components of professional typography. With this amazing machine, your typist can produce cleaner, sharper, more distortion-free originals for reproduction than can be produced on any system. With it, you'll be able to turn out such materials as house manuals and visual aids, company reports and publications, catalogs, ads, fliers — you name it. All right on the premises in any type style you could possibly want; all in less time for less cost and with the same quality results you expect from a seasoned pro. And that's just half of it. AlphaComp has features you'd expect to find on costly heavyweight equipment. Like ten memory banks, automatic indent, and an information storage and retrieval system for those repetitive jobs. This sensational development — the dualdrive floppy disk — stores, recalls and edits 250,000 characters (about 50,000 words) on a single $7.50 disk. And if that isn't enough, plug an AlphaComp into a Xerox word processor and let your w/p staff do the typing. One more instance where the Alphatype Corporation updates its equipment. Write on! The new technology is here. Why not get in on the ground floor and send in the coupon for a personal live demonstration. At your office or ours. Because if we want your business (and we do), we want you to try this incredible machine for yourself. You only have to plug it in to start setting perfectly beautiful type. Remember, if you have an AlphaComp, you have a typesetter. ALPHATYPE CORPORATION 7711 N.

Listing all the typographers who are potential ATA members would take nearly 5 spreads like this one. But listing all the typographers who are actually ATA members is much easier. All 52 of them are circled here. Now, that might lead you to believe that becoming a member of the Advertising Typographers Association isn't all that easy. And you'd be right. Because, to become an ATA member, a typographer has to meet an exceptionally high set of standards that include typesetting technology, work quality and business ethics. All of this is something you might want to consider the next time you select a company to set type. Because of the thousands of typographers you could choose, there are only 52 that we've also chosen. Yaeger Typesetting Co., Inc. Berkeley Typographers, Inc. Total Typography, Inc.

However, we know you can use Chartpak Color Film for more important projects, because it's manufactured for professionals who have graphic problems to solve and demand the highest quality materials. Chartpak Color Film is offered in 192 matte finish colors and 11 transparent projectable colors. A newly developed adhesive adheres firmly, yet can be easily removed or repositioned at any time. By the way, the tallest animal ever recorded was a giraffe named "George" who lived in Chester Zoo, England between 1959 and 1969. He was an impressive 20 ft. tall.

With conservative estimates of pass-along readership this means that if you advertise in both editions of U&lc more than one-half million buyers and users of typography will see your messages in U&lc in 1979.

Although reminiscent of the type style generated by office typewriters at the turn of the century, ITC American Typewriter is modern and distinctive. Characters have been refined for increased legibility. The resultant family promises wide use in modern times while a bit of nostalgia has been preserved. This addition to the Dymo Typographic library is available for Pacesetter use on segmented and full disc fonts.

What Utz Ic's 145,000 Circulation Means to You. 1. Quality. Although the controlled circulation (June 1978) of the domestic edition approaches 80,000 and the new U&lc International already reaches over 65,000 readers, U&lc's list is constantly growing and is refined and updated to be sure that the people who get U&lc want it and respond to it. U&lc is aimed to hit your targets internationally, nationally, regionally, and locally. 2. Responsiveness.We have received an incredible number of unsolicited and highly enthusiastic letters from readers. We can show you stacks of these. 3. Advertiser results.1,500 inquiries or more to some ads. 4. Reach. Demographic and geographic reach. U&Ic ferrets out buyers in hard-to-find places all over the world, including many in the rapidly growing in-house typesetting/reproduction/ communication centers. 5. Diversity. An ad in U&lc is seen by the largest audience in the graphic communications industry. 6. Pass-along. A higher-than-usual pass-along readership brings your message to over one-half million persons if you advertise in both editions of U&lc. 7. Inspiration plus credibility. Readers really love U&Ic, look up to it. rate it the best in the world in our field. They admire our contents and our graphics. Let some of U&lc's glow shine on you. 8. Cost effectiveness. No other publication in the typographic arts field comes close to offering so much for so little —less than 21/2 cents per prospect for a full page, 1 V2 cents for a half page and a fraction of a cent for a quarter page.You couldn't send prospects a postcard for so little—even if you knew where they were. 9. Longevity. An ad in U&Ic never dies. Copies of U&lc are kept and referred to constantly. They become collector's items. 10. Leadership. U&lc has become the tastemaker, the trendsetting publication in the graphic arts industry today. This gives your ad in U&lc extra impact. 11. Uniqueness. U&lc is not a news-reporting journal...it is a news-making journal. Its in-depth reports of new technologies and their significance to U&lc readers and its innovative graphics build and hold a large and prime readership for you. As a quarterly we do not compete with any other journal or publication in the field. U&lc is the only typographical arts journal in the world today. ...and finally, please remember this: U&lc has only a limited number of pages that it sells for advertising. This keeps U&lc small enough so that your ad will be noticed—but it means you must reserve your 1979 space now.
