Fearless Typography

Here is an even more annoying instance of CAP/non-cap sentences:

M Y U S E D - B O O K store had been open for just about a month when the police showed up.

This is the opening sentence of Walter Mosley's novel, Fearless Jones, the pdf version. Notice the spaces between some of the letters of the first three words. It doesn't stop there. Paragraphs in the middle of chapters are also victims of this clever typography. I just couldn't take it anymore, and just re-edited the file to conform to modern standards. At least a text-search now works.
