National Intelligencer, 1820
The Detroit Free Press, 1950
USA TODAY, 2001
1820: almost all same type face, small type, long story leads—nothing breaks on first half of first page,
Headline tiny
Visually homogenous: gray from a distance

1950: variety of type (still pre computer)
Black and white photos
But text dominant

NYT 100 year history show
