Reminds me of a poster I scanned that was comically large. The Library of Congress has the budget and actual equipment to do scans worth a fuck, though.

high definition for research purposes and historical purposes

@amdorintel Yes sir! I'm glad they are able to document history in that way. 

that's actually good , more details per image the better imo. 

FYI, have to flex a lil bit, i made this tiff image set one time that went near upto 6.9GB . (Lab color,16BIT,9000x something resolution) a high res PDF page conversion via Photoshop. totally unnecessary but did it anyways. apparently PDF has no set value for size & resolution for the contents within & i just punched in those settings for import in a "lossless" manner . it took like 20+ seconds to open the image files(size ranged from 900mb at minimum to 7gb range at max per file ) after saving it, sometimes the windows image viewer simply crashed by saying cannot display error . i was so proud. believe i posted a status about it with screenshots. cannot find the attachments via search now sadly, will post it if i find them.
