All hail the conservationist Nicholas Baker. I have to admit I’m not a newspaper reader, but I can appreciate the beauty and information stored within their pages. After reading Double Fold and going to his website I can appreciate all the work he has done to save newspapers. Just looking on his website you can see the marked difference in quality between the original papers and microfilm. The subtle colors and shades are completely lost on microfilm. Thanks to Baker there are original copies to be admired.
