Misc. Notes

Originally scanned at about 180dpi color, converted to 600dpi monochrome.
The score should get cleaned to get a perfectly reprintable version, but I'm lazy. If I get asked for it from many people I may take the time. It seems like the photos (no scans) have slightly different resolution on different pages. To scale correctly every page scaling would have to be adjusted separately.

Misc. Notes

scan: score scanned at 600dpi
filter: score filtered with 2-point algorithm explained in High Quality Scanning. I provide the original scanned version and the filtered, because the filter does some changes (smoothening, sharpening borders) and some portions of the scan get lost sometimes (when they are too small e.g.) - so you can choose your favorite. You may ask me for a manually cleaned version.
