Revisiting my Top 10 Literature (Special Mention)

“No one in this world, so far as I know...has ever lost money by underestimating the intelligence of the great masses of the plain people. Nor has anyone ever lost public office thereby.”
Ardoise met the needs of publications. By extension, it met the needs of a newpapers typeface featuring a low contrast, straightforward forms. The verticals metrics and proportions of Ardoise are calibrated to match Mencken.

Black Mask
Founded by H.L. Mencken (who gave Ayn Rand her break as an author) it established an entirely new brand of mystery fiction.
As Raymond Chandler put it, they were "mysteries you could read even if the end was missing".
Black Mask was revived in 2016 and still exists.
