Frank’s “A Tale of Two Types”
Frank tells a tale of two types: the sans serif font called Arial (let’s be honest, Helvetica, really) and the serif font called Times (New) Roman. It is said that Times will cut your ink use when printing. Frank, of course, investigates further, and what follows is a twisting tale of mistaken point sizes and shady serifs.

Frank -
This is what you do better than anyone in the world - remind us of how we got where we are - and where we can from as an industry and the relevance of it all. With some interesting and funny notes thrown in for free!
Keep up the good work!

Excellent video, Frank. I think this is the first of your WTT videos that didn't have your smiling face in it once (except for the funky intro). Way to shake it up. Love the Times New Arial illustration. Keep up the good work!

I believe that the serif was created as the entry point of the chisel in order to carve the letter rather than the lifting of a brush.
