About This File
*kitsunebi edition*
Here's the part where I let you know what's different about this file from the previous one available here in case you don't want to download them both to compare:
- The images in this scan are 3200px high. (The other scan is 2200)
- This scan was debound with a heat gun so that the entirety of the pages could be scanned from edge to edge. (The other scan was debound with a guillotine cutter, cutting off part of the gutter side of the paper from each page)
- This scan was edited with the two-page viewing option in mind, so facing pages with connected images or backgrounds have been more carefully joined.
- Pages are whiter, colors less saturated. Which version you prefer may be a matter of taste.
- I didn't scan the subscription card inserts (maybe I didn't even have them, I can't remember.) So if you want to try your luck at printing out and sending in the postcard to subscribe to Game Player's Sports for Kids, you can get them from the other scan offered here. Incidentally, the subscription cards in the other scan were placed EXACTLY where they appeared in the original mag, which actually interrupts one of the only two-page-spread ads in the mag, making it impossible to see both pages of the ad side by side, so if you DO want those cards, I suggest moving them to the end of the archive.
- For anyone who may have downloaded this mag from my Internet Archive account, I've "remastered" the pages somewhat from that release, so I'd recommend replacing it with this one (the file at IA will be updated with this one whenever they allow uploads again)
There honestly aren't very many two-page spreads in this issue, so on most pages you won't even notice that the older scan has had each page slightly cropped, but for those who care, this scan should offer a more satisfactory viewing experience in two-page mode.
Examples of color/center join differences:
This scan is shown first (on the top). Older scan is shown second (below).
