Jeg sitter med noen nk 16 og siden jeg ikke spesial samler på de, hadde jeg i utgangspunktet tenkt å selge noen av dem. Men da jeg skannet dem tenkte jeg at jeg skulle prøve skanneren litt og skannet alle i 1600dpi. (Tiff filen ble 135mb!)
Da så jeg at ikke ett merke var likt, alle hadde ting som skilte det ene fra det andre. Altså, intet salg. :) (det er snakk om 9 merker)
Hva finnes det av litteratur og hva bør jeg gjøre?
Jeg har fått tak i denne:
