Excerpt from Making Type Work
Back in the days when I first got the notion that I would like to learn how to make type do what I wanted, I used to make no end of dummy layouts. From magazines, newspapers, books and what not, I clipped all sorts of type pages, illustrations, orna ments and borders. Then I played with them in much the same way that the child in the kindergarten plays with its pieces of colored paper.
I was curious to see what would happen when I used this sort of picture, lettering, border or ornament with that sort of type.

Excerpt from Making Type Work
In advertising print, typography is merely the ser Vant of the advertising idea. It should not exist for itself at all. It should never obtrude by a display of dexterity for its own sake. It is merely the medium through which an advertising idea is given that physi cal form which helps the reader to grasp in the least time and with the least effort what is being said to him.
Any willful eccentricity of arrangement that hin ders the clear flow of the text injures the chances of the advertisement to get itself read and understood.
