This picture is a digitized proof from 1967. Proofs don't hold up very well and we are very glad to have preserved this image before it faded away. We tried to enhance the sharpness and contrast to improve the quality of the photograph. Perhaps more can be done with it as our skills improve. Many thanks to John Boney for sending us this digital copy!
