There’s been a lot of hubbub about NIN latley since Reznor released Ghosts I-IV (which is awesome by the way) last week. The Nine Inch Nails Hotline has a link to the NIN Historian, where I found a stub for the one and only time I saw NIN live, opened by a very young Perfect Circle. I found a few reviews of that show here.

Antique Tuscan One is a font developed by William Page in 1859. It does not include lowercase or figures. The peculiar forms employed in Tuscan fonts, such as the pointed bulges in the approximate center of the face as well as the fish-tail serifs are often included in the designs of this style.
Wooden Type has some very nice renditions of western-style wood-block type faces. You can get some of them here.
I’ve used this typeface on a poster for Los Strait Jackets a couple years ago. I love that designers are reviving these old wood type faces into digital forms.

The New York Times TimesMachine can take you back over 100 years to see what was in the news. Pick from Daily Times, on September 18, 1851, through The New York Times of December 30, 1922. I only wish the images were higher resolution.
