Quote - Yeah, 1967 - 1975, I finished all artwork, logos with set squares, T square, compasses, rubber cement, hot wax, small brushes for lettering...imagine cut and paste some lines and words in order to fit into a column. My first graphic computer was Amiga 2000 and a BW NEC laser printer cost me C$10,000 in 1980 and a stat camera which I still have them in my basement. Those were the days.
My favorite was pasting on tiny little page numbers by hand ;o). Couldn't get em with your fingers (too small), so you had to pierce the corner of the cutout with your knife, pick it up and lay it on the layout board ;o). Tedious upon tedious. There was just no existing without an xacto knife, a blue pencil, a T-square and a brayer within arms reach ;o).
