  5. I’m transported back to an old, old, New York space, atmospheric and frosty — Ed Benguiat’s SVA night class. These were the textbooks!

    I’m here, via pinterest, in mid-search for an image of the huge, red white n blue P-L ‘BICENTENNIAL TYPES’ poster c 1975. Any leads appreciated!
    Will now see what I’ve been missing here! Thanks for these surprise touchstones!
