JOHN T. PAOLETTI (Editor-in-Chief 1997–2000) addresses several issues of style and format in his Editorial Note, including: previous attempts to enliven the cover with brilliant colors, the introduction in this issue of the first photographic reproduction on the cover; grants from the J.M. Kaplan Publication Program and the Samuel H. Kress Foundation to fund color illustrations; and the change from footnotes to endnotes (pdf).
