picked up a book on german phone booth ad-art and got fascinated with the old-school grainy xerox style again, a mother of necessity, which is where i started. used to blow out 35mm contact prints to get this kind of quality. nowadays it's just a photoshop plug-in away. you got serious issues if you're calling up a 1-900 number, talking to some old granny, and you're thinking you've got this gal with the super-bullets on the line...
