Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 ABSTRACT Lee, David L., M.A., June 1981, Journalism A Pictorial History of Photography in the Missoula, Montana, Missoulian from 1873 to the Beginning of World War II (189 pp.) Director: Warren J. Brier w : r e This study traces the use of photography in the daily Missoulian from 1873 to 1941. The first, section, a brief history of photojournalism, places the Missoulian in a historical perspective and provides infor­ mation about the development and refinement of photography and its use in newspapers. The second section chronicles the period from the Missoulian1s establishment in 1870 as the Missoula and Cedar Creek Pioneer to the beginning of World War II, which would bring major changes in photojournalism. All issues of the Missoulian from Sept. 15, 1980, to Dec. 18, 1941, were studied, and photographs were selected as being representative of technological changes, shifts in editorial policy, changes in society and for historical sig­ nificance. The Missoulian was representative of small-circulation dailies during the period studied. When the Missoulian was founded, photography--a scientific curiosity— was incompatible with print. When World War II began, a technological revolution in photography was under way. Throughout the period, illustration played a major role in changing the appearance of all newspapers. Readers1 demands for more and better pictures outweighed the opinions of editors who preferred columns of type. The Missoulian, like other newspapers, seemed to resist the change. But just before the war, that change was markedly apparent. Photographs had become a legitimate and necessary part of American journalism.

Man first described his life by adorning the walls of his cave with crude depictions of daily activities. In time artists corroborated written historical accounts, and improved printing methods facilitated wide dissemination of written and pictorial accounts. In 1839 a new form of illustration, photography, was invented by Louis Jacques Mande Daguerre. But even before photography, newspapers envisioned the advantage of com­ bining illustrations with written copy. By 1843 the year- old Illustrated London News had more than doubled its circu­ lation by liberal use of woodcut engravings. It was not until 1880 that a means of reproducing the tonal gradations of photographs in conjunction with one-tone printed type was perfected. But a combination of factors— the development of a successful negative/positive photo­ graphic process, the perfection of the halftone process, and the introduction of a plastic-based roll film--merged about 1890 to lay the cornerstone of modern photojournalism. Then the immediacy, literal description, and convincing presenta­ tion of reality embodied in photographs became a part of the newspaper industry. 2 The achievements of early news photographers with cumbersome and by modern standards primitive equipment are almost beyond comprehension by today's photographers. But that crude beginning has resulted in photojournalism becoming the major interest that it is in the newspaper industry. This study examines one Montana daily newspaper from its founding until the beginning of World War II. The Missoula Missoulian was established shortly before the emergence of the halftone as a general feature of American newspapers, so its start conveniently coincides with the developmental stages of photojournalism. All issues from January 1873 to December 1941 were reviewed. Photographs were chosen because they are representative of a period or a particular technological development. All photos in this manuscript are reproductions from original Missoulian pages taken with a Mamiya C220 2^-square format camera on Kodak Plus-X Professional film. Some of the earliest photos were taken from microfilm, for bound volumes of the earliest Missoulians are not available. Some loss of detail is apparent because an enlarged halftone dot pattern is the result of photographs made from previously screened photos. The study ends at the beginning of World War II because of the increased technological sophistication that resulted from the war effort. Further study during the war years and to contemporary times is recommended. 3 SECTION I Chapter 1 History: From Pictographs To Photojournalism Although photojournalism is relatively young, the concept of telling news of events pictorially goes back as far as the history of man. The earliest pictographic records of events (hunts, birth, death, war, etc.) in the lives of prehistoric man predate the alphabet by thousands of years. More than 25,000 years ago inhabitants of rock shelters in Spain depicted hunting scenes and other aspects of their life with wall paintings. Within the next few thousand years the cave dwellers in France and Spain similarly adorned their cave walls. Bas-reliefs dated about 3,000 B.C. record kings1 conquests and other historical events, including in one instance a governor carrying a brick basket (the Babylonian equivalent of laying a corner­ stone ). ^ The beginning of an "illustrated press" appeared in early illuminated manuscripts of the ancient Egyptians. These led craftsmen to experiment with woodcuts, which resulted in a type of news sheet— one-page, one-shot The Complete Book of Press Photography (New York: National Press Photographers Association, Inc., 1950), p.8 4 illustrations that recorded the story of an event. As engravers became more proficient, these illustrated news 2 accounts grew m popularity. Ironically, the beginning of photojournalistic renderings and social comment in illustrations evolved not from these early pictorial records but from the artistic interpretations of two eighteenth century artists, William Hogarth and Francisco Jose' de Goya y Lucientes. Hogarth (1697 to 1764), a London painter during an era when pretti­ ness and pomp were fashionable, introduced blunt honesty into his paintings as commentary on the English social structure and its morals. Lucientes (1746 to 1828), a Spanish artist, achieved his fame soon after Hogarth by documenting the brutal life and times of the war-torn and 3 corrupt S p a m m which he lived. Newspapers did not wait for the coming of photography to illustrate their pages. Cartoons and drawings were used to a limited extent in the early English and American 4 Colonial press. 2 Clifton C.

KGaA, Weinheim ISBN: 978-3-527-31739-4 j3 1 Top-Down Fabrication of Nanostructures Ming Liu, Zhuoyu Ji, and Liwei Shang 1.1 Introduction The top-down approach to nanofabrication involves the creation of nanostructures from a large parent entity. This type of fabrication is based on a number of tools and methodologies which consist of three major steps: 1) The deposition of thin films/coatings on a substrate. 2) Obtaining the desired shapes via photolithography. 3) Pattern transfer using either a lift-off process or selective etching of the films Compared with general chemical fabrication and processing methods, top-down fabrication techniques for the creation of nanostructures are derived mainly from the techniques applied for the fabrication of microstructures in the semiconductor industry. In particular, the fundamentals and basic approaches are mostly based on micro-fabrications. In this chapter, methods of top-down nanofabrication will be discussed, with attention being focused primarily on methods of lithography, especially optical, electron-beam, X-ray and focused ion beam lithography. A brief introduction will also be provided on how to create nanostructures using various methods of thin film deposition and etching materials. Finally, the methods for pattern transfer through etching and lift-off techniques will be discussed. In the past, top-down fabrication techniques have represented an effective approach for nanostructures and, when complemented with bottom-up approaches during the past few decades, have led to amazing progress having been made with a variety of nanostructures.

Till recently, in order to distinguish between these fakes and original prints, art historian specialized in art prints have been using only magnifiers (magnifying lenses). The aim of the present study was to set up a scientific method based on non-invasive techniques to find out differences between photoengraving reproducing etching of the century XVIII and original etching of the century XVII, and to document them. To this aim, several devices were tested: IR reflectography, Portable X-Ray Fluorescence Analyzers (XRF) and optical microscope. We aimed at analysing mainly the kind ink used and the lines. We chose not to analyse the kind of used paper, since for forged prints antique paper can be used as support. The IR response of the two kinds of print, was found to be not relevant. Ink components, as analysed by XRF were not to be distinguished between the ones used for photoenvravings and for the original prints. With the microscope, small areas showing lines were investigated with a 10X enlargement. Obtained macrophotographies allowed to point out a lot of differences between the two prints.

Original Cost of Engraving Plant An engraving plant may cost a few hundred dollars or sever­ al thousand dollars. The cheapest plant will be small in size and without many of the refinements of the higher priced models. It will not be as well constructed nor of as good material, and, probably, will not last as long as the more expensive equipment.

The two-dimensional cartographic framework is ideal for portraying distance relationships, describing routes and boundaries, and revealing causal similarities in spatial patterns. Yet in the news media, where the linear structure of printing type dominated for centuries the format of newspapers and magazines, the map's areal organization of sym­ bolically coded information has deterred the widespread use of journalistic cartography. Not surprisingly, the development of reproduction technology that treated the page as a single image, rather than as an array of parallel lines Mark Monmonier is Professor of of type, preceded a fuller use of news maps.

ABSTRACT. The first practicable photomechanical system-contact-screen photogravure-was invented in 1852 by W. H.F. Talbot of England. Many of the approaches introduced by Talbot are still used in current practice: contact cross-line "master" and "working" screens: metal plate etching through a bichromated gelatin emulsion: etching with ferric chloride solutions of different concentrations: and selective local etching for "retouching" purposes. To provide the tiny image ink-holding components in the printing plate, Talbot used fine gauze fabrics for the contact cross-line screens and fine resin particles (aquatint) applied as a powder or liquid. He also experimented with contact screens of ruled lines on paper: scored cartilage: waxed paper with scribed lines: aquatint pattern on paper and a blackened film with uniform grid of clear circular openings. INTRODUCTION By 1852, the year in which the first practicable photo- this coating was insufficient for camera exposures but ade- mechanical system was introduced, two different approaches quate for photogenic drawings (photograms) and contact had been devised-heliogravure (1826), and chemically etched printing.
