Hi Christoph --

The one from archive.org has a pretty good resolution of 2387x3211. I bumped it up 200% and cleaned it a little bit.

Here are both versions:

So no one has got a perfect magazine and scanner? Then I will try my luck with some upscaling algorithms. Anyway, thank you! :-)

You (presume you) don’t want to scan the cover itself. Tinned produced the image as a print, of which he made 150 copies. The cover was derived from the print, but overlaid with the Byte logo, issue number, date of publication and summary of contents.  Find an original print and scan that. It will give you far superior results.


Best,
Christoph

Mine was lost in a house move years ago. Hard to believe that anyone
would get rid of a perfectly good used magazine from the 1980s but
apparently these things happen. What was I thinking?
