My copy of the Complete New Yorker on DVD should be waiting for me when I get home from work today. I’ve been so excited about this the last few days. I even upgraded to two-day shipping from free shipping because I was getting impatient. I can’t wait to see it and start using it.
Meanwhile, here’s an NPR story about the DVD archive that goes into a little bit of detail about how they did it.
Yay! Fun things in the mail!
I sat and flipped through the site/demo/tutorial for the DVD last week. The New Yorker really set the standard in its day for typography and graphic design. Yes, “in its day.” Recently, though, it’s had Seymour Hersh to redeem it, so I guess that is something.
