I had a rather poor scan of a war-time portrait of Francisco Lemos; my scan was pretty awful, and very low-resolution. Given the importance of Lemos to our history, I really wanted a new, better scan.
Charlene Stacy happened to see a copy of a photo of Lemos at the recent sale at Schreiner University, and picked it up before it was, well, lost forever. She has graciously allowed me to scan that original copy. Below is my scan, complete with the removal of the tear in the photo -- which was represented in the copy of the original. While this is a third generation of the original, it's a lot better than what I had before. Thanks, Mrs. Stacy!
