Download or read book American Wood Type: 1828-1900 written by Rob Roy Kelly and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first and most authoritative history of wood type in the United States is now reissued in paperback. This book tells the complete story of wood type, beginning with the history of wood as a printing material, the development of decorated letters and large letters, and the invention of machinery for mass-producing wood letters. The 19th-century heyday of wood type is explored in great detail, including all aspects of design, manufacture, and marketing, and the evolution of styles. Many related trades interacted with wood type production; the book examines the influence of lithography, letterpress, metal-plate and wood engraving, sign painting and calligraphy, poster printing, and type-founding. Long out of print, the book is still regarded by scholars and designers as an invaluable resource for a rich legacy of typographic art. More than 600 specimens of wood type are classified and annotated, as are more than 100 specimens of complete fonts. This reissue includes a new foreword by David Shields, Design Curator of the Rob Roy Kelly Wood Type Collection at the University of Texas at Austin, discussing the renewed interest in the subject since the mid-1990s as well as ongoing research into the history of wood type.

Download or read book American Journalism written by W. David Sloan and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2002-04-10 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: News consumers made cynical by sensationalist banners--"AMERICA STRIKES BACK," "THE TERROR OF ANTHRAX"--and lurid leads might be surprised to learn that in 1690, the newspaper Publick Occurrences gossiped about the sexual indiscretions of French royalty or seasoned the story of missing children by adding that "barbarous Indians were lurking about" before the disappearance. Surprising, too, might be the media's steady adherence to, if continual tugging at, its philosophical and ethical moorings. These 39 essays, written and edited by the nation's leading professors of journalism, cover the theory and practice of print, radio, and TV news reporting. Politics and partisanship, press and the government, gender and the press corps, presidential coverage, war reportage, technology and news gathering, sensationalism: each subject is treated individually. Appropriate for interested lay persons, students, professors and reporters. Instructors considering this book for use in a course may request an examination copy here.

Book excerpt: Only on Saturday is the singular, definitive volume of Jack Stauffacher's beautiful and experimental typographic prints. Highly collected in his lifetime, these prints reveal Stauffacher's whimsical yet meticulous studies in composition and craft.After inheriting a box of old and mismatched wood type in 1966, Stauffacher began playing with the weathered letterforms "only onSaturday" as a break from his work week. These arrangements-some patterned with letters in different sizes and typefaces, some layered with multiple presses of a single letter, others awash insolvent-morphed from exploratory sessions in his off hours to formal studies of what was possible between the positive and negative spaces on a page.Only on Saturday examines five limited-edition portfolios of these dynamic and inventive prints, as well as his unbound individual and series prints. A selection of images from each project is paired with an essay detailing the process behind the work and tracing his influences-from his filmmaker brother Frank to modernist designer Laszlo Moholy-Nagy. In addition, many of Stauffacher's long-time collectors and collaborators contribute first-person stories about his process and legacy, painting a portrait of a printer-scholar at the top of his craft. Available in regular and deluxe editions, Only on Saturday is a celebration of this master printer, who introduced typography as a subject for modern print making.
