Paul Shaw is uniquely qualified to have written this account of the development since the mid-1960s of the New York City subway system signage. The first print run of his book Helvetica and the New York City Subway System (Blue Pencil Editions, 2009) was sold out extremely fast. It has been reprinted several times since then. The following text is one chapter of his book. Slanted 18 — Essays and Reports
