So as part of my efforts to work in PR, I bought a printer. The one that was 1) the cheapest 2) worked with the Linux (an HPJ4550) also had a scanner. I thought it would never work on Linux, or not without some series fiddling and tweaking.
But I bought the postcard, pictured above, to do a test run, and the run of test worked immediately. Go Linux!
Now on to the postcard: love the postcard because it is so 1972-1982 or so. It would be hard to find such a scence today.
Not only are windsurfers a dying breed (kite surfing is the new kid on the block), well, current windsurfers are definitely not so 1970s orange, yellow, and blue.
And so you have to ask: are there just truckloads of these postcards printed decades ago or do they actually print them anew?
Can’t answer but at least I know the scanner works!
Wow, that is a hobiecat 16. The Catamaran with the largest fleet in the world. we own 2 of them
