That's just sill- "ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTUSH!"
--- Quote from: TheEvilDog on 17 May 2017, 21:07 ---By the 60s, the printing technology still meant that the quality of the inks and paper meant the inks were prone to running and so capitalised letters still kept their legibility.

Curiously, I have read that research into the legibility of text demonstrated that all lower-case text was easier to read in poor print quality, since it is less dense and has more distinctive letterforms.

The UK's road signs use mixed case for exactly that reason. The Worboys Committee which redesigned them in the 1960s cited research showing that the overall shapes of words were part of the way we recognise them in fast reading, and the use of lower case obviously gives variation in those shapes which the rectangular blocks of words all in capitals lack.
