For those of you who are too young to know, the Jahns' fence diagram that I sent previously and Figure 5 of Jahns and Ewing (1977) were drafted by hand with drafting pen and rub-on stencils, as were the hundreds of geologic maps that were published as part of the WWII mapping effort in the USA by the USGS (e.g., Cameron et al., 1949).
