Thank you, Frank. Just what the doctor ordered. Now I have that plate in two forms, of which the one you took is by far the best for my purpose. Printed out, it will go to the binder with the rest of the book. It won't be an exact match, however, unless I can find a way to make it tatty, dog-eared, faded, and foxed, like the rest of the pages.
