Image:Noah webster small.png

This is a public domain image of Noah Webster, which I (Oliver) have shrunk and cropped to fit the page better.

I found the original image at http://www.sru.edu/depts/cisba/compsci/dailey/public/noah_webster_grey.htm (http://www.sru.edu/depts/cisba/compsci/dailey/public/noah_webster_grey.htm). The caption there is as follows:-

"Noah Webster (from 1911 printing)
greyscale version shows engraving detail
as well as credits to SFB Morse and JAJ Wilcox, Boston"

The page from which the original image is linked is "Images in the Public Domain (http://www.sru.edu/depts/cisba/compsci/dailey/public/public_domain.htm)", a page in David Dailey's section of the Slippery Rock University's website. On that page, Dailey describes the original image as being a greyscale [sic] version of "an engraving (apparently by SFB Morse) of Noah Webster (from the 1911 Webster's)". -- Oliver P. 02:52 Mar 6, 2003 (UTC)
