Presumably type might 'warm up to' these stock illustrations and work hand-in-hand to provide the message, hence the 'Type Warmers' sobriquet.
Originally known for illustrating lots of attractive and humorous postcards of the early 1900s, Shinn moved into the field of purchasing stock art and redistributing them as electrotypes or 'cuts', the predecessor to today's digital clip art.
A variety of the animations he sold can be found in the Shinn Kickers JNL typeface.
