So... what are newspaper "Column Inches" in actual inches?
#17
Could be Intertype; odd what things you remember 30 years later, and which you don't. Do recall that the stack of pigs got much smaller every winter when the guys with pickps would "borrow" half a dozen to use for extra rear end traction. Mid '70's it was though. When I started in '75 they still usually had two guys going most days of the week setting type, though much of it was from papertape. Three years later when I left it was down to one guy working a typesetter two or three days a week. Pretty much everything else was coming in as camera ready copy or as film to make plates from.
