A few weeks back I posted an old Chrysler ad I found online. The image quality was ok, but kinda small. Subsequently I found a copy on ebay, bought it, scanned it and cleaned it. I’ve posted the full-rez, fully cleaned version of the ad to the 2017-07 APR Extras folder on Dropbox, available for free for all APR patrons at the $4 level and above. The full rez image is 4043×6270 pixels, orĀ 13.5×20.9 inches at 300 dpi. It could probably be safely printed off at 200 dpi, giving 20.2X32.35 inches.
Here’s a dinkyscale version of the new scan:
And here, because I want y’all to know that these things take time and effort, are some full-size crops from both the final version and the raw scan, showing the improvement in image quality. Some of it is done via a few keystrokes, such as tweaking the rightness and contrast, but erasing thousands of little specks and fixing flaws? That’s all genuine artisanal hand-made old-school photoshoppery craftsmanship.
If you are interested in accessing these and other aerospace historical goodies, consider signing up for the APR Patreon.
The Airport Mobile Lounge fascinated me as a kid. Yes, Wikipedia has an article on it.
Although one could probably have more fun with a Marsh Screw Amphibian, the Airport Mobile Lounge is conducive to larger numbers of partty guests,
