Now in its 40th year, USA TODAY's print edition has changed by design. USA TODAY has published nearly 250 national editions a year, multiplied by 40 years: that's 10,000 newspapers. We should hit that milestone soon. The very simplest way to look at the evolution of the front page is by just looking at the logo and the grids designers have worked with and, sometimes, without. Al Neuharth's audacity to push for and create a national newspaper and Richard Curtis' plans to fill it with color and graphics led to a new era in print journalism. George Rorick, the person largely behind the full-page weather map, can't be forgotten either. The "out of the box" thinking that created the weather page rippled through many of the paper's early designs.
