HI

Has anyone got the software to put these two pages together ? I have about 200 pages from the 60's which I can upload, but have not got the time or software to do it.
updated and can be seen below - thanks to rizzy56 for the work.

Hi Davide,
I tried to put the two pages together. I'm not good at it (see the result)
I bet we have members here who can do this perfect.
Maybe lt. Columbo ?

Hi David, kool to see you made it to this place!!!

You couldn't have surprised me more by putting up one of
the 'lost' color shots done by Lloyd Shearer... of 'Memphis
Lonesome' fame! I know of other Shearer color pix used in
Boyfriend, but this one is new to me!

Hello,

Normally i use the program "Scan N Stitch"...only this scan seems to have a missing part (centre) so the program doesn't recognize the images.
It's a top program, i use it a lot for LP scans.

I used it yesterday for this photo

Regards,
Geert

I use Micrografx Publisher and this would be easy, but as Geert says, there's a bit missing and also it would help if the two pieces were straight, although that can be overcome sometimes.

What I will do is scan it again when I get home along with some others.

All the best

I don't think Davide is waiting for compliments on the images (although they are great !) but for someone who can put them together.

They need to be scanned straighter. As we've already explained, there are bits missing.

as a huge fan of David's work researching Elvis in the early years,
by jove, let's not have stacks of half pages up first and wait for them to
be repaired, and than put up again for the 2nd time.
Is it not possible to post the half pages directly to the person who can
repair them for you David?!

I agree with your comments, and have deleted my scan's as they looked a bit of a mess. I have taken these wall panels (which are big) with my camera.
