I’ve been collecting arcade stuff for about 20 years, and have piles of arcade manuals and flyers that I’ve been meaning to scan some time.
Looking at how to best do this, I found a bunch of people scanning old stuff in the Gaming Alexandria and VGPC Discords, as well as a great guide at https://scanning.guide …
… and this rabbit hole went deeper than I expected, so now I have a CanoScan 9000F and stuff for doing proper color calibration and things.
I’ve been putting stuff on https://archive.org/details/@buffis for now, where earlier stuff will be worse quality than later things since I’m learning as I do this. Ideally I’d want a personal mirror for my scans somewhere as well at some point.
Anyways, this is pretty fun and I don’t really have any advice in this space other than following the https://scanning.guide instructions, since they definitely know this shit way better than me.
