Not sure what kind of scanner you have, but I learned some helpful tips with my scanner. Maybe the first is obvious but to crop the item when you select the image as it appears on the scanner bed, just before you Save or Send the scan to file. When scanning items like news articles, magazines or anything that is a printed original as opposed to a photo - I go into my menu items (either under settings or tools) and select Sharpen details in photos & also Descreen printed originals. Feel free to pm me if you have any specific questions! I agree this would make a great display at an event and it seems like you will have enough information, photos, stories and first person narrative to make a wonderful publication! Eager to help any way I can!
