clean up lingering tiff issues on Google Drive #19

Closed nicholasjhorton closed 1 year ago

nicholasjhorton commented 1 year ago

It looks like there are some files that need attention:

@kjinsanity might you be willing to take the lead on tracking down these remaining issues (lest they bleed into the other folders on Google Drive)?

Thanks in advance, Nick

While converting, I noted in #2 that 253-old.tiff was a duplicate of 253.tiff

Maybe one should be deleted?

nicholasjhorton commented 1 year ago

If it's a duplicate (and 253.tiff is a better scan) then the old file should be deleted. @kjinsanity can you please take a look at this and the other dups?

nicholasjhorton commented 1 year ago

I've taken care of 253-old.tiff in the tiff and tiff_processing folders.

286 and 286 (1) raise some interesting question. One has a string to hold it down and the other is at an angle. Let's talk.

286 and 286 (1) raise some interesting question. One has a string to hold it down and the other is at an angle. Let's talk.

Regarding 286 and 286 (1), I believe that for consistency's sake that 286 (the one without the string) is better because it matches the style of the other pictures. If the angle is an issue, then page 288 also seems to be at an angle as well, and the detail of the string may cause an unknowing viewer to think there may be a significance to the string on that page only

Regarding 303 (1).tiff

I believe that 303.tiff is a better image as it does seem to contain extra information on the scrap that is not present in 303 (1). Looking at page 305, that information isn't there, so for sake of preservation, I think it should be important to keep it.

I concur with @kjinsanity's assessments. I moved the other images into raw_deleted on Google Drive.
