ART DIRECTORS have been known to spend long hours working
- their fingers to the bone over a hot drawing board. What is not generally known is that they spend much longer hours with these same fingers crossed in hopeful anticipation that the final reproduction will somehow manage to retain the tonal qualities of their original art. Mechanical limitations always! And if a loss in artistic value occurs in black-and-white reproduction, how much greater are the hazards of color reproduction?
