While going through some old family photos I found a copy of the Bennington Banner and Reformer, dated August 27th, 1903. From the context in which I found it, I think it is probably some sort of commemorative edition printed at a later date, although I can find no later date on it. Anyway, I have scanned the four pages that make up this document and if you would care for a copy, please contact me _privately_ by email - lets not flood the list with requests. Here's how this will work so read carefully before saying "yes". These images are big, approximately 1 Mbyte, so if you are working through a regular 56k modem each one will take about 3 to 5 minutes to download. Also, if you are just using a regular POP server for email, I will have to send them one page at a time else they will likely overflow your mailbox. If you are permanently connected through something like a cable modem or ISDN these constraints _may_ not apply to you. If you want these images, send me email saying something like "please send page 1", or if you have a permanent connection "please send all at once" or "please send pages 1 and 3". Once you have got the first page you request then send another email saying "please send page 2". Page 1 is titled North Bennington and has a bunch of articles about it. Page 2 is titled South Shaftsbury and has a bunch of articles mostly about it but also a couple about East Arlington. Page 3 is titled Arlington and East Arlington and has a bunch of articles about it. Page 4 has no title and is mostly short articles about stores and churches mostly in Bennington. Because a newspaper is much larger than a scanner, each of these images have had to be stitched together from four scans. The result is legible but the stitching will not win me any awards in computer graphics. Also, in order to manage image size, the quality has had to be reduced somewhat. Its free, what can say - its worth what you pay for it ;-) David E.
