THE MAN
WITH MORE
FACES THAN
GIAMBATTIST ►
BODONI •

Self-portraiture has been an obsession among many artists ever


since early man first drew his pictures in the caves of Altamira.
Never in our memory, however, has one artist dedicated so large a
portion of his art to the absorbing subject of himself. With this saving
grace. Each drawing is remarkably and engrossingly different. The
ones on this spread reveal not only a wildly vivid imagination, but
an extraordinary skill in picturing the most intricate detail; while the
ones on the next two pages show the artist in a virtual kaleidoscope
of personal moods.
Jim Spanfeller's work has been seen in almost every major maga-
zine, from Redbook and McCall's to Esquire and Playboy. He is listed
in various Who's Whos and has received over 60 awards from a
variety of national art and illustration organizations. Examples of
his illustrations appeared recently in the NewYork Historical Society's
"200 Years of American Illustration" show, and he has appeared
personally on the Mike Douglas and Johnny Carson shows.
According to Spanfeller, the initial reason for his doing so many self-
portraits wasthat, when hewas just a youth in Philadelphia, the only
model available to him at the right price was Jim Spanfeller.
Since that ti me — partly because he prefers to work through the night
and partly because he has no respect for "the still-current illustration
philosophy of tracing photographs as a substitute for creativity" —
he will often utilizethe same approach. Although self-portraits repre-
sent only asmal I part of his artistry, he seems to have established a
definite association with that idea. It is his feeling that his efforts
have a strong sense of the bittersweet and, when people relate his
drawings to a sort of black humor, he believes that they are then
more understandable.
His work has been likened to a most curious combination of classic
European art and the American comic strip, and he thinks this
estimation may have something. "As I get older and older;' he
points out, "through my self-portraits I may possibly envision myself
as an absurd comic-strip hero in an even more absurd world:'
We suggest you look over the portraits and see how you envision
him. It's our guess that you will find them as fascinating as we do.

t was Thomas Wolfe who once, in eighteen exquisitely written
-----

pages, described a single tree in Central Park. Those readers •


who sifted through his pages thought, "Oh yes, that's how it
is— that's just what I see when I look at a tree;' when actually
all they'd seen was a tree before Wolfe verbalized it for them.
Simpson Kalisher does much the same with a camera. He sees
something more than what's actually there and, through sheer
photographic artistry, captures it through the camera's eye.
Sometimes he works his magic with a single photograph, sometimes
with a pair— the one complementing the other for a synergistic effect.
For the practiced eye, his remarkable pictures require no explanation.
They provide a most persuasive and articulate representation of the
world we live in. His images invariably evoke after-images, and you
find yourself reaching back to an already viewed photograph or
sequence to register something that you only perceived subliminally
before. For the casual obseiver, however, we have provided sugges-
tive captions insomuch as his trademark is the ingenuous understate-
ment. A noted photo-journalist, Kalisher has created a fistful of
award-winners for several advertising agencies, and is currently one of
the foremost photographers for corporate publications, as well as
having his work in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern
Art. The photographs selected are from his most recent book,
"Propaganda and Other Photographs;' a Two Penny Press Book pub-
lished by Addison House. For Kalisher, "the excitement of the indi-
vidual photograph is in taking possession of a moment and owning
it, not for as long as it takes to happen but for a lifetime:' The politi-
cian, the poet, the novelist, the historian may all alter such moments
with after-the-event ornamentation, but the fine photographer can own
it precisely as it was and make it a gift to us—which is exactly what
Simpson Kalisher is presenting to us here.

that is just where you're likely to primarily interested in the draw-
find this stunning, impeccably ing and mechanics of the human
body as a manifestation of underly-
ing emotional content expressed
through vigorous physical move-
ment. She had her first one-
woman show at New York City's
York Gallery in 1965, in 1971 her
painting "The Horse Race" was
hung on the walls of the Museum
of Modern Art and, earlier this
year, her exhibition of painted
drawings and frescoes at New
York's Bodley Gallery was enthusi-
astically received by both press
and public. Her work has included
assignments for such leading
corporate clients as, among others,
Sports Illustrated, IBM, Bloom-
ingdale's, NBC, Doubleday, Colgate,
and The Metropolitan Opera.
Currently, she is doing the illus-
trations for this publication's
"ProFiles" series while completing
a commission from Virginia
Slims for its "Landmark Series,"
thirteen paintings, of which seven
are shown here, portraying the
drama and excitement of the
women's professional tennis tour.
These paintings, a "stroboscopic"
sequence of the full forehand
swing from lead-in to follow
through, were designed so that
each individual female figure can
stand alone but, when seen to-
gether, represent the intrinsic
"spirit of tennis." Other than the
first one, each painting follows
directly where the other left off to
visualize in its entirety the com-
plete forehand swing, while sub-
liminally showing women in the
sports world as they truly are—
athletic without loss of essential
femininity, replacing the "jock"
image with the real one of appeal
and sensuality.
In an upcoming series on the male
of the species, Dian will be pre-
senting a more discerning view
of men's sports, perceptively
scratching the familiar "macho"
surface to reveal beneath the true
esthetics, the ballet-like grace
and agility of the male athlete—
combining the academic and clas-
sical objectivity of a viewer with the
responses and attitudes inherent
in women.
From cheerleader to Virginia
Slims and who knows where she
may turn up next: the men's locker
room at the Astrodome? the tack
room at Churchill Downs? the pit
stops at the Indianapolis Raceway?

Dear Senator Tower;

The above address form is a gross example of poor taste. Used in other
forms it might also prove to be an example of forgery. In the world of
graphic-design it hes represented "legal theft." Such "similar to"-ism
has been prevalent in printing and graphics trades In the copying and
offering for sale of another person's creative work.

I am writing to you, as my Senatorial representative, asking that you give


critical consideration to copyright protection for the design of new typefaces,
designs, and artistic creations. Subcommittees are now looking into such
legislative issues--the House Subcommittee on Civil Liberties and Adminis- AN ERRATIC SERIES OF VISUAL THOUGHTS
tration of justice has earmarked this item as "the Pattison amendment."

Addition of a small "similar to" to art work of another is no less than theft
and it is certainly a shoddy practice. It has served to block creative effort
by many artists who would rather not produce than have their work stolen.
Let's put an end to "Similar to"-ism in 1977.

Most sincerely,

And Distinctive Merit, too. As far back as anyone can remember, New York has
always been taken for granted as the cultural capital of the arts—most especially,
the graphic arts. No more. Increasingly, in recent years, the annual awards of the Art
Directors Show have been going to out-of-town entries. Take this past year. Out of 26
Gold Medal awards, 11 went to participants outside New York; out of 43 Silvers, 16;
and out of 55 Distinctive Merits, 21 were picked off by out-of-towners. While it is true
that the majority of the best work still emanates from New York, it is by no means
any longer a certainty. Great work is being done in Boston, in San Francisco, in
Harrisburg, and you name it—as is evidenced by the representative sampling seen
in this spread. And this is true not only of professionals, but of talented students as
well. In short, "gold" is no longer the special province of New York. A mushrooming
impressive lot of it is being dug up out in "them thar

So reads the imprint on an 1870's
school card given as a "Reward of Merit"
by the teacher to a pupil.
Cards such as this were placed lov-
ingly in albums, by recipients, there to
remain for a hundred years or more,
and today such humble ephemera, these
tiny fragments of history, are being
rediscovered by collectors.
I am one of those collectors. I dig
into dusty bins at flea markets, or flip
through pages of nineteenth-century
novels in hope of discovering a single
precious printed item which might have
been forgotten there. More often than
not, my search is rewarded. I began
dipping into bins in my art student
days.Today, twenty years later, I
have 500 Rewards of Merit, and more
than 15,000 other wonderful items of
paper Americana.
A collection of Rewards of Merit offers
a fantastic array of ornamental designs

with images of Indians and explorers,
cupids and ships and animals and presi-
dents. The designs are eclectic and
quaint, reminding one of peasant art.
Reward certificates, hand-drawn,
were known before 1800, but by 1815
printers were already in pursuit of the
mass market. They began by printing
woodcuts on delicate parchment which
were to be hand-colored by the teacher.

amples say simply, "A Pleasant Boy" or

have a place for the teacher to enter
her own and the pupil's name (in best

Except for a few special subjects,

were being produced in such quantity
during this period that collecting them
was already a national pastime. But
ARD earlier items, ones cut from a page and
colored and assembled by a teacher as
personal keepsakes, are indeed worth
collecting. They are "prints" as fine as
any. Many bear the marks of American
artisans. Some are so scarce that they
may be defined as limited editions. In
my estimation, early samples of mass
production are invaluable to our his-

singing in the bathtub, and several incon-
venient resolutions.
So far as I can make out, the cosmos
has been untroubled by these manly CREATED AND ILLUSTRATED BY R.O. BLECHMAN
relinquishings. And the news that I am DESIGNED BY HERB LUBALIN
now giving up the rat race isn't likely to
punch any black holes in its celestial
harmony, either.
It happened just the other night when
I curled up in the big chair to sink my teeth
in the upcoming new book, "The Great
American January Through December
Nineteen Hundred and Seventy Eight Rat 9612 God 4, 414:6
Race:' What life couldn't accomplish over
years too numerous to mention, R. O.
Blechman and Herb Lubalin have man-
aged to do virtually overnight.
I am not easily excited. I have twice
ridden the Cyclone at Coney Island
and I have spent an evening with Charo.
But even the most jaded reader cannot 3 04,01 147
fail to get a thrill from this little treasure
trove which will, or certainly should, be on
everybody's Christmas gift list.
As the evocative title suggests, this 46,4
witty and charming volume is constructed
as a calendar with a delightful illustrated
story line by Blechman enhanced by the
captivating design one has come to
associate with the name Lubalin. Blech-
man has a deft touch with uneasy subjects.
What he did for the "talking stomach"
through his popular TV series of Alka Seltzer
commercials, he is doing for the "racing
rodents" allegorically putting a cluster of
them through their monthly paces over
the obstacle course we call urban life.
We Americans are a strange species.
In New York, for instance, we pour out of
the outskirts into Manhattan each day
from around 6 o'clock in the morning to

our homes. If we push and crowd into the 29 3C 31

subways, it's because our jobs depend on


our arriving on time; if we are suspicious of
each other on the job and advertently
climb over a fellow worker, it's because our Fliketaiti
very survival is at stake; and if we huddle
and jostle on the way home again, it's
because suppers and families and prob-
lems are waiting along with the obligatory
TV. Visitors find that the rat race way of
living is contagious: you're a human chip
in a fast-moving tide that will quickly over-
whelM you if you don't accommodate
your pace to the common tempo. People
who come from less crowded places are
shocked when they first find themselves
caught up in the race. Those who can, flee
from it; those who can't, race or get run
over. Men and women have written bitterly
about it, applying the old saw to New York
that makes it "a nice place to visit, but I
wouldn't want to live there"
41

All this and more has been amusingly


and penetratingly illustrated by R. O.
Blechman's subdued pastel palette as
10/ ' he covers the "race" from start to finish
with his "moving" strip of racers. Although
individually done, the color wash draw-
ings have motion, timing, and sequence—
the stuff of motion pictures. But means and
matters of technique are of small moment
to Blechman. Foremost always is a point of

The 1977 ART Annual has been juried and is in layout and production
at the time this ad had to be written. I know it will be 166 pages and
that it will have over 200 color illustrations. I don't know the exact
number of the latter yet. That will be dictated by the work we have to
show. Our policy in the Annuals and all of the issues of CA is that
everything that is in color will be reproduced in color. If you don't see
it in color here, it was originally black and white.
My name is Dick Coyne. I'm the editor and publisher of CA and I have
a lot in common with you and most of the readers of our magazine.
a
I graduated from art school. I was an agency art director and a
N corporate art director and the founder of a major West Coast design
studio. CA was started in that studio nineteen years ago. But don't let that
type us as a West Coast magazine. I am just as familiar and concerned
with what's happening in New York, Boston, Chicago, Atlanta,
•• Commun ication Arts • P. O. Box 1 0300 • Palo Alto, California 94303 ••

Cleveland or other cities as I am with San Francisco or Los Angeles.


We also have a very large Canadian and foreign circulation.
I am backed by a great staff and a network of contributing editors
around the country, and the world, who are all knowledgeable pros in
the business. Allen Hurlburt, for example, the former art director of
Look, was one of the most honored people in the business, including
The NSAD Art Director of the Year when that organization was still
functioning. Allen is living in London at this time and covering
that part of the world for CA.
Between us we try to plan interesting issues with diversity and balance.
We feature outstanding designers, art directors, illustrators and
Caa) photographers, and sometimes we will take a broader overview of
a) a specific area of the business, like a three-part article on the rep
E
Ca -o system in New York, Chicago, and the West Coast. Our content stays
close to professional interests because that is our audience. We
assume that our reader has a working knowledge of the business and
present our material accordingly. Our format is geared to a flexible
layout to best display the work, not to fit the work into our format. As
we have grown in circulation, we have been able to steadily increase
the number of editorial pages (approximately 750 this year—twice the

The Comp/Set Concept Faster than the traditional way of getting type.
If your company owned a Comp/Set phototypesetter, you'd take an ad
like this one from copy to first type proof in less than an hour. Corrections,
if any, in minutes after that.

More control than you'd ever imagine.


With a Comp/Set phototypesetter, you'd talk face-to-face with the
operator. You could tell him about that special letterfit you want.
You could even draw him a picture. And he could do it while you wait.

From traditional styles to the very latest,


in a remarkable range of sizes.
A Comp/Set phototypesetter gives you up to
70 on-line sizes from 5 1/2 to 74 point. In any of
hundreds of available faces. On durable,
inexpensive type discs.

Affordable, easy, and reliable.


A Comp/Set phototypesetter can prove to the
most skeptical that in-house phototypesetting has
indeed become practical and inexpensive. And we
train your operators in just a few days, to do fast,
amazingly high quality work. Comp/Set phototype-
setters are also performance-proved, and backed
by a nationwide service network.

Video
Cathode ray tubes can make typefaces
wider or narrower and can slant them,
often with unpredictable visual results.
Video is the first typeface designed for
cathode ray techniques; the oblique
below is the roman slanted, a new texture
under full control. The State-of-the-art of
typesetting is as futuristic as 2001: A
Space Odyssey. Matthew Carter, exploring
the next generation of typesetters, de-
signed Video with the future in mind. Its a
portent of things to come in type design
and is set here with the aid of computer
programs (ATP 1/54) on the V-I-P, Track 2.

geometric variations. Unfortunately, many of
the changes that improve letters when
condensed, make them less suitable for
extending, and vice versa.

Under operating conditions, the ability of


CRT systems to vary point size and set width
independently is most often used to obtain
larger letters without sacrificing copy-fitting
space. For this reason, the design of Video
tends to favor its performance when con-
densed. As letters are squeezed narrower on
the output tube, the vertical parts are thin-
ned, while the horizontal parts, although
shortened, retain their original thickness.
The resulting imbalance becomes progres-
sively more unsightly, and eventually, illegi-
ble. By drawing the horizontal element of the
normal version lighter in both straight and
rounded letter forms, the degree to which
they can be distorted without detracting vis-
ually is much increased.

Similar adjustments are made to the draw-


ing of curves and oblique strokes to maintain
their even weight when slanted to make
synthetic italics.

CRT typesetters have the ability to make


synthetic italics from roman letters by slant-
ing the raster on the output tube. Sans-serif
faces lend themselves particularly well to
this treatment, because the true italic form is
in fact a sloped roman — unlike most serifed
romans whose companion italics have dis-
tinct cursive characteristics.
Mergenthaler, Linotype, Stempel, Haas
The modification made to the letterforms of
Video to adapt it to condensing also give it Mergenthaler Linotype Company
the exciting texture in the italics.

All right class. What's the

What's it got to do with Geotype?
You there, with the T-square

—and more—you say.
And more what?
And more characters per sheet. 22%
more than the other guys.
Good, what else?

printed right on the sheet.
Guaranteed shelf-life. Won't crack

stable carrier sheet. Won't knock

Special Characters
our service experts check out your specifications, then study each job for the subtleties

Most typesetting machines can accommodate special


characters in addition to the upper and lower case alphabets,
numerals and common punctuation marks. The extent to
which they can and the method used to make the special
done
characters available to the user varies from machine to to be captured, economies to be achieved, pitfalls to be avoided. Our proofs prove it.
machine, even from model to model.
Generally, such special characters as old style figures,
foreign accents, small caps, alternate and swash characters,
math/sci symbols, superior or inferior figures, and even
special logotypes are carried either on the image master or
on special pi fonts.
The number of characters accommodated by image
masters varies on different machines. The more that can be
accommodated, the less the need for pi fonts. Today's second
generation phototypesetters have image masters with many
different capacities. For example: 80, 84, 96, 100, 102, 106,
108, 110, 112, 118, 120, 128 character positions.
Shown here are two typical image masters and some
pi fonts.

Some machines produce only one size from an image
