I bet those are prints of photos rather than prints of the originals. I guess it's hard to tell, what with what looks like poor quality printing anyway. I mean, sure, they're kinda nice but they look more like sunday newspaper colour inserts than book or poster quality printing. Maybe it's just me. I think I saw 1999 written somewhere: that wouldn't help of course re: digital quality. Reminds me a bit of the Posner Library books. Why yes, I am a harsh bastardo.
