      I'm surprised the Secret Service did not shut them down immediately
                                        
I recently read in The Transylvania Times [1] (the paper of record for
Brevard [2]) that past issues have been digitized up through early 1975 [3]
and are available online. Way cool! So I picked an arbitrary issue to look
through, January 9^TH, 1975 [4] and learned a bit of the history [5] of the
bed and breakfast we stay in [6], and some ads for movies I've never heard of
[7] but it was page 14 that left me speechless—it was an add for printing
jobs done by the Transylvania Times:

> We Print Anything But Money—
> 
> But Our Presss Has Even Proved Itself Capable Of Doing That!
> 

“The Transylvania Times. (Brevard N.C.) 1931-current, January 09, 1975,
SECTION A, Page 14, Image 14 · North Carolina Newspapers [8]”

It left me speechless, but only because I was laughing so hard.
