Do you like the new Camden Community News banner on page one? Thanks to Donna Seline, Typesetting a la Macque, who conceived the idea– she took photos of the old Camden Theater sign and merged them with community graphics to create a new look for the Camden Community News. And thanks to Sherman Associates (Sherman-associates. com) – they own the Camden Theater sign on their building at 42nd and Lyndale – and gave the Camden News permission to use it.
