•  Support These "telling pictures" are representative for that trade and time and, above that, the fine quality of this chromolitography, makes it a quality image. -- Alex:D (talk) 13:56, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

  There's nothig I can do, it's a typographical error. Only the upper border and the top and bottom margin of the images are a little bit tilted. Side and bottom borders and left and right margins are straight. --Alex:D (talk) 21:05, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

  Pity, nice image otherwise. Lycaon (talk) 05:56, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

•  Support When this type of image it's important to respect the technical limitations of the era. A very slight tilt of tenths or hundredths of a degree often occurs. When restoring, I'll correct for errors that result when a brittle document cannot lie flat, but I'll leave this kind of slight misalignment. It's truer to the period to retain these little hints that the work was done by hand rather than automated. Durova (talk) 10:24, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
