Casper, the Dead Baby, Pt. 1.
Sigh. I tried to scan Kaspar, the Dead Baby, but ran into a lot of problems.
For one thing, the originals I have are much too big for the scanner I have access to - they're 11x17. I reduced them on a digital copier beforehand, but the reduced copies had lot a lot of detail and were still too large for the scanner. But I didn't realize that until I was actually trying to scan them.
I ended up having to scan them in two pieces each, mostly, but the images just wouldn't join up properly - it's a fairly cheap scanner. The first page was the only one that fit completely in a single scan.
This is frustrating, to put it mildly! If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know. Meanwhile, here's a very poor rendition of the first page. Notice that a LOT of detail is missing - for example, you can't see "The Dead Baby" under the name "Kaspar" at all.
