The iconic, American-designed, dual-bulb Vemco Vemcolite VL-4 was introduced in 1985. I got mine about 1987 at the same time I moved up to a track-drafter drafting machine. The VL-4 had a specific bracket so it could attach to the top of the vertical beam, the one that moves left and right and had the floating head with the scales. It was great the way the light moved with focus of my work.
I’ve been a graphic designer for a zillion years. Initially my primary tools were an x-acto knife, metal-edged triangles with a t-square on a drafting table with a metal edge and a Borco self-healing surface. Then eventually I graduated to a parallel rule and triangles. By the mid-‘80s I was doing a ton of print ads, including lots of fullpage newspaper ads, so I needed to improve my production capability for doing big stuff. The holy grail at the time was a track-drafter. I got one and loved it! And got the cool dual-bulb Vemco VL-4.
I needed a table with a lot of useable real estate. I took a big, solid-core, natural birch-skinned door, trimmed the ends with caps of cocobolo, and for the long front edge I routered out a beefy pencil trough of laminated hardwoods cristobal and purple heart. I built a standing-height base. I was ready for some serious paste-up chores!
Less than a year later I got my first Macintosh, a Mac Plus. And within a couple years, computers changed everything with graphic design tools.
Eventually my track-drafter went into storage, and then at some point I sold it at a garage sale. But the vintage Vemco VL-4 and custom-trimmed big-door table are still with me in my studio and are used every day for all kinds of art projects.

Goudse Icons is in honour of the festivities in 2022 for the 750th anniversary of Gouda as a city. Of the bronze artwork 'De Kaasboerin' by Ineke van Dijk, 50 concrete copies have been cast. Nearly 500 citizens, with different backgrounds, have edited these images.
A few months back, in celebration of getting 100 followers and for my new user icon, I opened up requests for more MNOLG-style icons, and here is the result so far. I think I received over 30 requests, and I'm still catching up, but consider this a promise to finish them up pretty soon.
I would ask that you not use them without permission of the owners. If you would like one for yourself, I may open up some commissions pretty soon. These take way too long to do them all for free (but they'll be cheap). :D

Female Icon Dasha And Out Of Sigh Nadja
(In an attempt to not become a Dasha Exclusive Account I’m trying to space out posting my millions of Dasha photos! Poor Nadja is SO loose in some joints that she needs help to hold a pose, but it ended up giving me some great results!)
Let's rewind the time to October, where I had a brief moment to take those quick arrival shots of Level of Suspense Lukas and Female Icon Dasha. And they're still in the boxes till this day, yikes! I need to hurry and enjoy these fabulous two :)
Metra F40 no. 122 shoves its train into Chicago Union Station with the Willis (pronounced "Sears") Tower in the background dominating the skyline.
The Ivan Vazov National Theatre is Bulgaria's national theatre, as well as the oldest and most authoritative theatre in the country and one of the important landmarks of Sofia. It is located in the centre of the city, with the facade facing the City Garden.
The theatre's Neoclassical building, designed by famous Viennese theatre architects Hermann Helmer and Ferdinand Fellner, was finished in 1906

The two blast furnaces still standing here were built in 1907 and shut down in 1978. They were part of a complex of seven that ran around the clock 365 days a year, producing iron for the area steel mills.
It’s now a National Historic Landmark.
I love that logo.
Ultrafine Xtreme 400@800 developed in the same tank as the Arista Premium - Diafine 3+3. The negs came out very thin and the images grainy. This is fixed with levels tweaked in PS.
Olympus 10 + Zuiko 28 mm f 3.5 ... I love this 28 mm, so encompassing !!
L'icona romano-bizantina dell'anno 609 della "Madonna Odigìtria ("che indica la Via, ovvero Cristo")", che si trova a Roma, collocata nel Pantheon quando fu trasformato nella chiesa di Santa Maria ad Martyres.
La foto mostra l'opera restaurata in occasione della mostra "De vera effigie Mariae", dal cui catalogo è tratta. Attualmente questa icona è in buona parte coperta da una riza d'argento barocca.
