Both look pretty good to this eye.

I just ordered an Epson scanner:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000VG4AY0/ref=oss_T15_product
It looks pretty good on the description but we'll see how it works.
I think I got ya beat on the 25 year thing. I've just begun a lifetime
project, so it seems. Well...it's gonna take a while. The 2 attachments
are scans (done with the old HP scanner) of albumen prints done in 1899.
They were in a photo album that I believe to be mainly comprised of my
maternal grandparents' honeymoon in Florida after being married in Indana in
1913. The older prints are a bonus, I guess.
The first one (depending on the way the mail servers scramble 'em) is a very
badly faded and damaged shot of the first horse-drawn wheat binder in the
Converse, IN area. I don't know anything more about it except that Converse
is in the area where my grandmother was raised.
The other one is a mug shot of (presumably) students and teachers at what
was then called a "normal school" or a school for teachers...sorta like a
"department of education" at the UofU...only a lot different. :)
So lemme see how the Epson scanner works in comparison to the HP. Should be
a lot better. We can go from there, k?

looking for a high quality scanner. Does any rat in the pack have one?
