Then, from the mid-'50s to the late '60s, I flew from New York City to our Chicago printing plant almost every week because our color pages went to press several days before everything else.

...majority of them in color, appear in the average issue of TIME. They are picked from among thousands of pictures that Time Inc. processes in its own photo lab, or collects from picture agencies and wire services every week. The goal of the Picture Department, under Editor Arnold Drapkin, is to find the pictures that best depict the persons or events in the stories they accompany.
