  • Support. Fantastically detailed image. Despite the huge file size, it seems like there are artifacts throughout (especially noticeable around the typed characters) that are in the unrestored version as well. But it's such a large, detailed and attractive image, with more than enough detail to read all writing and significant bits, that the artifacts don't really matter.--ragesoss (talk) 06:06, 1 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Support - This is an exceptional image. I don't think I could say much beyond what ragesoss mentioned - other than the fact that it was published in my home town! :-) ~ ωαdεstεr16«talkstalk» 19:27, 1 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note I have removed the image from the second article it was as it was poorly positioned and the context for its used was not established either in the image's caption or the article's text. Guest9999 (talk) 05:19, 4 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Great image that provides a good historical look at the city. Makeemlighter (talk) 04:42, 6 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
