1925 Minneapolis Journal, Historic Deepzoom


Statement

Very high resolution scans of an 85 year old local news paper, composed together with new technology allowing a very deep zoom ability. This is the front page of the Minneapolis Journals Rotogravure Section from November 8th, 1925. A rarefied treat for the connoisseur.

You might love seeing the Minnesota Gophers play the Wisconsin Badgers in Memorial Stadium! I could not find this wonderful image anywhere else on the internet. I take pride at providing it.

Also, get a look at the Savage Schoolgirls! Pretty cool jump! Other curious events captured include a John D. Rockefeller "Restoration" and a U.S Ocean liner "rescue".

I have uploaded and embedded this experience into a blog format, to be enjoyed by all.
