Everyone please note when there is an advertisement between birth announcements there are horizontal lines. Where no advertisements no hortizontal lines. Obama's birth announcement is the only one has horizontal lines. Any ideas? Was an ad removed and Obama's birth added???heck now I see lines drawn across the page.
I've been saying this all along. Glad someone else finally understand this.
Didn't notice this before. Wonder where photo originally came from.

Yes, but only on the microfilm. Actual newspapers from that date will show a different story. tick tock tick tock......
Busted ping... actual newspapers from that day will prove the microfilm was tampered with.
Look at the distortion on Aug. 5 right above Obama’s announcement.
I work with a guy who’s been printing newspapers for over half a century. He showed me how they did the linotype. They used metal letters, sort of like the old typewriters had the metal letters which impacted the ink ribbon to leave the letter on the paper. When they typed a letter on the linotype machine it released a metal letter from a cache which fell into place in a line of letters. When the line was done the metal letters were secured together with hot lead. So each line was its own specially-made “stamp”.
The lines were placed one above the other inside a metal frame. Everything had to be very tight. And then the small frames were held together inside a frame that was the size of the page. That frame was placed on the press and the papers were pressed up against that inked frame to make the image on the paper.
So when you see the frames on the page that’s exactly what it was - a metal frame.
If you look on this paper you’ll see that the announcements are uninterrupted going down - just one line of type following another - until an ad breaks up the continuity.
Some of the lines don’t show up clearly. I imagine that’s normal when microfilms are made. But the EXTRA lines we see would have to come from the microfilm machine or from a copy machine. Vertical lines could come from wear and tear of the reader on the films. I’m not so sure what would cause horizontal lines.
Maybe somebody who’s worked with microfilm could help us out on that.
But the placement of a horizontal line right before and after Obama and the Asing announcement, coupled with the distortion on just the words right above that top horizontal line do look fishy to me. We know the horizontal line is not from the frames because it actually crosses out some of the words on the far right side of the page.
Just eye-balling it, the whole left-hand column doesn’t look square with the rest of the columns.
Some people are pack rats and never throw away newspapers. Not even old ones. Especially if they detail some significant event. Especially if they're from a place where they honeymooned.
Many people chose Hawai'i as a honeymoon destination. Many saved old newspapers as mementoes.
The newspaper (actual newspaper, now yellowed and fragile pulp by now, likely) may be in someone's attic or garage, tucked away somewhere, forgotten... maybe. But that paper has the real birth announcements in it.
