type changes

when I was told to change the type on the old side of the book I considered changing the typeface on the writing. the initial typeface is the one that goes through the new side of the book. I attempted the typewriter but it got to be a bit much as the book is at the start and the idea of having the images lead you into the history works better conceptually according to some peer feedback. The hyphenated type still works as to make it have worse readability, as to reference the difficulty to find information and the ban of the place for several decades. 

I also attempted to find an alternative typeface to have a common thread through the book. but three typefaces in the book is a bit much.
as to add page numbers as suggested by my crit group I initially had them in the same typeface as the text at the start, but with the quality of the images and the obvious date of them it clashed a bit with it. 
But with the tracing paper elements being in this typewriter typeface it had added a bit depth to the design. the initial attempts were made with the numbers. if I were to fo with the numbers I think id have to add the zero in front of every single digit date. as to make it more of an even kerning through the text. 
But after attempting to make it with the Norwegian months written out it showcases the origin throughout and it is more natural to write the dates with the texta and, not the number in Norwegian.
