I thought I knew about print. I have now realised just how complex it is. From ordering your pages correctly so they print in the correct order (above) to inks not drying properly. Every tiny little bit of what a print designer puts together needs to be thought through to ensure success during print.
Well these guys from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology definitely should make us proud to be students! They made a camera out of a mobile phone (with GPS), a Canon camera, newspapers, disposable hand warms, duct tape and a Styrofoam beer cooler.

Can anybody help me with what the advertising says? I know the company is W.H.Turner, Tobacco Man'f. I can see outline of 'EVENING POST' in tall thin letters. I can see 'ING MEDIUMS' and 'T BRITAIN' (which I think should read 'GREAT BRITAIN'). Thanks for your help.
