...laborious, costly and slow, and not yet adaptable to highspeed printing. Merely to pose the static picture in last week's Look took two full days of work with a one-ton, cubical camera as complicated as an electronic computer. Five additional weeks were required to engrave the photograph, print it some 7,000,000 times on a sheet-fed offset press and then pour on and properly shape the clear plastic film that covers the picture with what amounts to a collection of lenses.

She is much more celebrated than he is, always appearing on lists of the ten best-dressed or -coiffed or just looking out from a photograph with a coolly amiable glance that makes men instinctively straighten their ties. Because she reads widely and far more than he has time to, he seems to look to her for literary judgments in much the way he depends on men like Jim Aubrey for first opinions about new gumshoes, comedians and hillbillies.
