Notes

  • film eval notes, 1876-06-05 1876-12-05: generally good; some images have a transferred image, sometimes the letters look a little smudgy, probably and artifact of the old printing technique, and the early issues are taped together. reduction ratio estimated by measurement, not sure if the dimension are correct either.
  • film eval notes, 1890-09-11 1890-11-30: acceptable. There is slight information loss in the gutter, but very little distortion or shadow and pages seem evenly lit and legible.
  • film eval notes, 1899-02-26 1899-04-25: contrast and lighting seem good, but the print is tiny and sometimes difficult to read due to fading of type. Focus seems to be more of a problem on this reel than the others. About 1/10 of images are at least slightly out of focus or very light, which greatly impacts legibility of the very small typeface and may impact OCR. Positive was very scratched.
