 Dear all,

 I have asked James Stewart at Elib what the position is regarding 
 copyright - I think he usually deals with the Anthroposophical Press, 
 so I've passed on the email contact for Kolisko Archive Publications 
 and relayed Roger's contact with them. I've asked him to contact them 
 himself direct.



Andrew Clunies-Ross who replied to my email is the grandson of Lili 
Kolisko. This info is on the following web-page which contains extracts 
(including some stunning images) from The Sun Eclipse published in 1978.

This could possibly mean the publisher is in fact the estate of Lili 
Kolisko and might well be amenable to having someone else put a 
non-profit copy of Agriculture of Tomorrow on the web. Might even 
cooperate in doing so.

Regarding the digital photography - for print accuracy a camera with a 
minimum specification of 3 million pixels would be needed. Mine is 2 
million; I took shots of different sorts of print with it, some with 
graphics. The latter were no problem but the print wasn't too good. This 
year's models of small DC cost around $Aust 650 which is what we paid 
for ours last year. Sony do a combined digital/video cam for around 
$A1600 which would probably do the job. Maybe we could ask a camera co 
for sponsorship!!!

Hi! Roger,
If you have the actual book and modest scanner for say $A150 will do the job.

I have neither, but have a friend who is archiving a lot of art photography,
such as all the entries in competitions and exhibitions at our local cultural
centre.
