This CD contains 83 high resolution digital BMP images from the 1884 edition of The
American Farmer. Each image is provided in two forms. One is as true color,
which displays age toning, and the other is grayscale. These images can be
imported to Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, PaintShop Pro, Adobe PhotoDelux,
PrintMaster and other popular painting and drawing programs and printed on
quality inkjet paper producing stunning results suitable for framing. Or for
designing your own greeting cards, posters, brochures and calendars.
The print out size is the same size as the originals, if
not enlarged or reduced. I have found that these Images print best on Hammer
mill Ink Jet Matte paper. When printed directly from the CD, they are the actual
size. (The same as the originals) and the result is an awesome print almost
indistinguishable as a reprint, even when using a relatively inexpensive home
ink jet printer. If Image permanence is a concern, these digital images will
also render beautiful professional quality prints when professionally printed on
acid free paper using the Giclée (jhee-clay) printing process. This printing
process is very stable, giving fade & color shift resistance of 75 years on
watercolor paper under average indoor light conditions.

During the 19th-century, there was a fashion for paintings and
engravings of farm animals. The wood engravings represented here provide a
unique record of rare or extinct animals which once grazed these lands and were
the foundation stock of our native breeds of cattle, sheep, pigs, horses and
poultry. .
