Bookman Old Style
Bookman was created in 1858 in Scotland. It was created for newsprint use. Considering not much was going on in Scotland at this time, i decided to look further in the world for history. In America in 1858 the Lincoln-Douglas debates were taking place from August to October. These series if debates were very well known and were made public by the use of Newspaper, which is how i am connecting Bookman to these events. I will be using the grids like the newspapers in 1858, they were very cluttered and used lines for separation.
