This same article was scanned and posted at the instapundit blog but the scan quality was atrocious. Could not read any of the text at all.

The original file that S.O.L. sent me was really huge - it showed to be 2MB and around 2200 pixels wide as I recall. So I took it my PhotoDeluxe software and trimmed the pic and then reduced it to 60% of the original size dimensionally (Height & Width). It was still really wide, so I chopped it into two parts so it wouldn't mess up folks FR pages here when posted. PhotoDeluxe got it down to around .360MB, not too terribly huge.

Great job, Gentlemen!

Another example of the synergy of Free Republic.

I have the feeling that some Freeper with some incredible scanner will step in and be able to scan this to look like the original Newspaper article.

In the meantime I'm sending emails out with links to this thread. I sent a few last night, and I have positive response back from some of the people, this morning.
