1914: THE LAKESIDE PARK LAND COMPANY

Take a 96 year old newspaper page that's foxed a deep tan with age, place it in the scanner, set the scanner for 300 dots per inch, activate the "De-screen" feature to eliminate "moire," enhance the graphic with a colorful title and border, and we have an attractive, historically valuable addition to the Hamilton Local History digital database! Such was the process I used on this delightfully historic real estate ad offering lots for sale by Charles G. Teunon at Hamilton's legendary Lakeside Park. It is a little more time consuming to dress up these historic ads, but after all, this ad has been couched within the darkening pages of the "Daily State Gazette" for 96 years!
