Broadsides
The piece from the MASC Collection I chose was a broadside written by the class of 1918 to that year’s sophomores. It integrates display type well, creating a visual hierarchy within the text. The most important information is printed in large display … Continue reading

My broadside from the MASC collection embodies total immersion. The typefaces, their arrangement and alignment, and their contrast create the composition, imagery, and perceived message successfully and without actual illustration. The type is arranged to resemble some sort of informative … Continue reading
Broadside – Lauren Turner
The broadside I chose definitely embodies Schlesinger’s description of total immersion of text and image. This broadside is unusual because the text is arranged in an untraditional manner which aids the total immersion of the text it portrays. The movement … Continue reading
