N.B.: With the blessing of Allan T. Kohl, creator of AICT (Art Images for College Teaching), Ross Scaife made these images available for teaching online back in ancient times (Internet reckoning), when scanners were slow and screen resolutions were low. We leave them here so that they continue to be included in the VRoma image search and especially for the instructors who have been linking to them for years, so we don't break their links. However, the University of Michigan Library has much better versions of these available in their digital archive.
