Yeah, the title is an On the Town allusion.

The photo shown is from a series of turnstile photos by Bill Sullivan. The photos were taken as people were leaving the NYC subway.

It seeks to integrate the editorial and design functions, which too seldom communicate effectively. Books, authors, translation, and reviewing are also covered.
