I scanned Sutherland Street 2006 yearbook from Pittsford Sutherland High School. But I put it on the Internet Archive because it is so large. It ended up being 52 megabytes. All but 5 pages are in color and color pages are on average 3 times larger than black & white (technically gray scale) pages. So it ended up being a very large file. You can view it on the Internet Archive or even download it.

This was a difficult yearbook to do. First, I had to correct the scans to make the pages the correct colors. That wasn’t too hard. I like to scan pages that have a margins all around. But the pages in this yearbook went all the way into the spine without a margin. So some pages have portions with words or names cut off on the spine side (right for even number pages and left for odd numbered pages).

Another problem is that pages 104 and 105 are headers for Underclasses but then the next 6 pages are faculty pictures. The underclass students start on page 112. All students have a picture except those absent on picture day.

The names under the seniors are in a hand-written font. OCR has a hard time with that style font. Also most senior photos have a dark background. Tell those studio photographers that some of the people get lost in their dark backgrounds. Much better to have light colored backgrounds. Only about half on the guys are wearing ties in their senior pictures. A plus is that a good share of the seniors have baby pictures included.

The seniors in this yearbook would be about 37 today. I wonder how many are already grandparents?
