New York Pizza's Family Tree

Posted by Adam Kuban, April 30, 2004 at 10:05 AM

Thanks to reader Greg, we're able to present to you the pizza-family-tree graphic that originally ran with Eric Asimov's June 10, 1998, New York Times story "New York Pizza, the Real Thing, Makes a Comeback."

Greg graciously volunteered to snap a picture of this illustration, which hangs on the wall of Totonno's, at the most recent meeting of the Slice Pizza Club.

It's a little blurry—it's difficult to get a good photo in low light and when you're trying to get newsprint into focus—but we think you'll be able to read it.

This is awesome. But it makes me wonder if you can get access to graphics associated with articles-for-pay on the Times website. I've never paid for an old article, so I wouldn't know. I sorta miss microfiche at times.

Jen: I just did a search for this graphic. I was even willing to pay, but I couldn't find it on the site. Not even under the "multimedia" tab. It's a shame that good info like this falls through the virtual cracks. It does prove the need for microfiche, no?
