Very cool typography in these Japanese newspapers from the late 1800s through the 1950s. I like the way they combine illustrations with it, or break up really dense blocks of type with wide open space.

Otaku no Seiza
Box art for Otaku no Seiza, a 1991 RPG for Nintendo Famicom. The crown on the logo is a nice touch.
"The game is a combination of science fiction and comedy. A nameless hero arrives in a city where women have stolen the rights of men. The player controls the man as he tries to free men in the city."

U&LC is online!
Fonts.com has started scanning issues of U&LC, a typographic journal that started in 1974 and ran for almost 30 years, and releasing them online for download. This is huge news for me because I've been a fan of Herb Lubalin and his work on the newsletter ever since I first saw pictures from it 10 years ago.
They apparently started doing this in October and have 11 issues up so far!

My new favorite opening credits
WOW
This being a Gaspar Noé movie I probably won't watch it but this title sequence is my new favorite. Halfway through, the type goes completely insane. I love it.
