Newsletter Cover - 1980s
For a while during the 1980s I printed the cover for this academic newsletter, edited by Dr. Nancy Cutbirth, then of Western Michigan University, in exchange for bits of money for buying letterpress stuff. The cover color changed with each issue. Each run was about 50 or so. The type is the glorious Newport, one of my favorite faces. The cut is a lead cut of unknown origin but absolutely perfect for this publication, if you are at all familiar with Powell's major series, A Dance to the Music of Time.
