Re: [GZG] SG1 or FT1



REALLY REALLY want FT1, really want everything, but collectors are SUCH
completists...

I have to assume others are better at such, but I'd be willing to put
effort into scanning and Photoshop'ing images of whatever you want tme to
give a go, by the way. Can be quite good at cleaning images up.

If you do give the G-Cav scan a go, let me look at the result to see if I
can likewise clean it.
