Anytime a copy is made, original detail is lost and new artifacts are introduced. Some of this can be reduced if photo
quality paper is used, but photo paper has a much different appearance than the paper used in the original catalog.
My goal was to keep as much detail as possible, but also have paper closely match the color and texture of the original.
I'm happy with the color match. The paper I used is heavier than the original -- the original is more like newsprint; thin and
delicate.
Here's how a scan of the original catalog compares to a scan of the reprint.
