Leyendecker produced a series of covers for the Inland Printer including many of the issues for 1897. He was in his early 20s and unknown when he created the covers as well as art work for each issues' editorial pages. He went on to become the primary cover artist for Saturday Evening Post before Norman Rockwell became well known.
To launch a new Flickr Group called Tech Repair, here's a few (uninspiring!) photos of a friend's Epson printer which stopped working, but was easily fixed with a bit of Googling...
See the full tech-repair post here
It's an Epson C42 that has reached it's "end of service" (see photos), a chip that stops it working after a while, when it estimates the ink-pads are full. I know of someone else that threw out their Epson printer because of the same problem. The printers are otherwise in full working order... they've just got some excess ink in them... what a waste!!
(rant on) In my opinion it's just bad design and "planned obsolescence" - money-grubbing bastards! (rant off).
Other than that I quite like Epson printers ;-)
Join the group and spread the word... hopefully we'll save a few devices and a bit of landfill space :)
Public School, Chesterton, Ind.
Date: Circa 1910
Source Type: Postcard
Publisher, Printer, Photographer: Crown Post Card Company
Postmark: September 14, 1911, Chesterton, Indiana
Collection: Steven R. Shook
Remark: Looking northwest, the public school in Chesterton was located on the north side of Indiana Avenue between Second Street and Third Street. The brick structure was built during the fall of 1879 at a cost of about $4,000; it was heavily damaged by fire on November 11, 1924, at 8:00 am, but was rebuilt. Today [2025], the Westchester Public Library stands on this particular site.
------
The following was published in the September 17, 1884, issue of The Tribune:
Work has been commenced on the spire of the Catholic church of this place. The height of this spire when completed, will be 60 feet and on the top of this a cross 13 feet high made of iron, heavily plated with gold will be placed. When completed the entire height of the spire from the ground, will be 135 feet.

The following new item appears in the February 15, 1912, issue of The Chesterton Tribune:
Local, Personal, Social
An agitation should be started towards getting the M. E. church site for the public school. The school needs this property badly, and it should be acquired as quickly as possible. The school building cannot be moved, and needs more ground for the children. Get busy and help get sentiment started.
-------
The following new item appears in the August 22, 1912, issue of The Chesterton Tribune:
M. E. CHURCH.
Work has begun on the church. The trustees have let the contract for the basement to Mr. Ameling. The building will be raised three feet or more and windows put in the new wall to be constructed. Front and rear entrances will be made. A new furnace, either steam or hot air, will be installed. The church will be painted and papered and placed in neat and tasty order. The basement will afford room for half the Sunday School and an excellent place for socials. The Ladies Aid will have a kitchen and dining room.

The following new item appears in the March 29, 1925, issue of The Chesterton Tribune:
CHESTERTON GRADE SCHOOL CONTRACTS ARE ALL LET
Contracts have been let for the completion of the work of rebuilding the Chesterton grade school, which was wrecked by fire on November 11, last. Algot W. Pearson gets the general contract, his bid being $21,993. If the concrete steps are put in on the west entrance he will receive $196 extra. Charles Nickel has the contract for plumbing, heating, ventilating and heat control $3,598.00, making a total of $5,953.00. Harold Bartels gets the electrical contract for $1575.00. These contracts total $31,707.00. the total cost will be about $39,000, which includes costs heretofore spent. Of this amount the insurance company paid $22,000, leaving about $17,000 as the cost to the taxpayers for the loss. For this the township gets a modern building, up to date. The cost would have been about $7,000 les by for the demands of the state board of accounts for safety and health guards included in the plans. The building will be ready for occupancy next fall at the beginning of the new school year.

Little bastard. That thing has been ruining essays and homework for a few months now and I had finally had it with all it's stuborn-ness.
Apparently the original art work for this illustration is up for sale on eBay:
www.ebay.com/itm/JOSEPH-CHRISTIAN-LEYENDECKER-The-Inland-...
and it looks like there are many changes from what may be the original drawing and what ended up being printed, including a change from the initial letter N to O. Interesting that something like this appears after 119 years.
So it's been a while since I checked in from the Ubuntu installs at the library. Life intervened in a ton of ways. I went back over to the library today. I spent most of my time helping a Ukranian woman wade through the 250 emails in her inbox spanning almost two years. Every time she'd see a lost job opportunity or a note form a friend from eight months ago she'd say "see, this is why I have to know this, I lose work not knowing this..." I had to agree to a point but also mentioned that checking her email -- however that needed to happen -- more than once every 18 months was probably part of it.
So, I was in prime form when I went downstairs to check on the Ubuntu machines. The handyman had installed the ethernet drop from upstairs and I had limited time. This is what I did in about 20 minutes.
- made basic user accounts on each machine and changed the password to the admin accounts from the one I put on the YouTube video
- Made a desktop for that account that has firefox and open office on it (for now, we'll move to games and IM once this is established as working)
- Plugged both computers into the switch I got. Hey check that out, they're on the internet. That was simple.
- Plugged the printer into one of them (HP 6100 series all on one blah) and went through the install printer routine. Hey look IT JUST WORKS, and prints.
Now one of the machines prints, both of them are on the internet, they've got a non-admin account on both of them and a locked down admin account. Next time I'll do software updates and get the other printer working via the network, flesh out the desktops some and write some documentation. Woo!
Allied Dimensions to launch LSBP 3D printer: www.3dprintersonlinestore.com/allied-dimensions-to-launch...
I spend a lot of time during the long, dark evenings playing WoW. Today I went though my equipment and made a spreadsheet of upgrades and printed it out. There it comes out the printer!!! Never noticed how dirty that wall was before...
I received an email from a coworker about a retiring professor trying to retrieve data off of old computers. Our central IT was unable to assist due to the age of the machines. The professor was trying to move files from a Mac OS X 10.2, 10.4, and NeXT computer. My heart skipped a beat after that reading that last one. Moving the vintage Mac files would be no problem because I keep those tools handy. I restore vintage Apple //, Macintosh, and other hardware as a hobby.
If you don't know what a NeXT computer is, it's this insanely expensive computer built by Steve Jobs after he was ousted from Apple in the 1980's. It ran Unix, had a gorgeous graphical user interface, and if you use OS X today it is still the foundational basis for the operating system. It was lightyears ahead of anything else out there at the time. Have you ever visited a website before? The first webpage was served on a NeXTcube.
I've never seen a working NeXT computer before though. I saw one in Berlin in a museum and read about them extensively, but I had no idea that our university actually had them.
I immediately went to the professor's office and he showed me what he was trying to do. We talked a little bit about vintage hardware and I told him that I'd never seen a working NeXT before. I was a little hesitant to respond because day-to-day we're flooded with tickets IT support isn't really my thing. Sometimes users, especially tenured professors, need a delicate approach because of their demands. This person could not have been more affable, kind, and good hearted. After talking a while he said he would rather have the hardware saved than go to scrap per university policy.
In the interest of archiving his data and this magnificent hardware I will be cooperating with him to save this NeXT computer. I've also agreed to save the Mac Cube and Power Macintosh G3. Twist my arm. They'll become archive computers if anyone needs a WordPerfect 3.5 file converted. Yes, people still have those.
I decided to document everything in place before moving it all to a secure location. That includes the NeXT computer, original manuals, flyers, software, printers, accessories, and even the original boxes.
The plan is to document EVERYTHING in detail. So stay tuned for future updates.

This was Kay's printer and works well. We have replacement toner cartridges in most of the colors. The cartridges fit this printer and also the printer from Karen's office.
