A wonderful post – fascinating, thank you. What font is used for the lower case sub-headlines – e.g. “Johnson Sworn In”. I think it might be Tempo, which, unless I am mistaken, is used by The Sun and Mirror UK tabloids to this day. May I offer thanks once again for producing one of the most engrossing sites on the web. I can never visit without spending several hours here!
William, thanks for the kind words! It means a lot to us.
Yes, many of the sub-headlines use various styles from Tempo. “Johnson Sworn In” is in Tempo Heavy Condensed. “One Small Step” and others show the Heavy Condensed Italic.
