Hi Jmt

Welcome to Rootschat!  :) :)

I started colouring this before I remembered to check the size of the scan.  ::)  It's only scanned at 150dpi, for the best results it's best to set your scanner software to 300dpi and then post a file that is just below 500kb in size.

Kind regards

Aw well done!  Even though this one is damaged, because it's the original and scanned at 300dpi you will get a better result and print.  :) :)  I'll have another go myself tomorrow.
