A man holding an aluminum printing plate

Last Saturday we went to the LA Times building to buy some copies of the historic headlined paper. It was thrilling to see the excitement over this election. We were two of maybe four caucasians in the line that stretched 75-100 people long at 9am. Some were buying a few copies, others, stacks, plus posters and this, the aluminum printing plate copy. Everyone was pleasant, and there was a real sense of relief. T-shirt vendors were out, as well. The woman at the door said she had only seen one other day like this: the day after 9/11. Probably safe to say that if 9/11 hadn't happened, this headline wouldn't have, either.
