As per the title. I know free digital copies are available from Fischer-topsch.org, I also know copies are available from NARA. Microfilm copies are also available from a source in Minnesota. The problem with all these sources is they appear to be sourced from documents that are not originals but mimeographs i.e. an old version of Xerox copying which is only 2-tone. My research requires higher resolution copies so that labels in some of the photographs can be read. Would be very grateful if someone could help tell me where this might be available and would be happy to pay for any high resolution copies of the originals.

As you may have noticed, there's a character limit to the subject line, which just so truncates the most crucial part of your request.

No one? Any help would be much appreciated. Even hints of a possible source would be much appreciated...

You can order the microfilm, if that's helpful at all. I think there are also other digitzed pdf versions of the files availble for sale, but not sure if the captioning is any more clear.

I just found this link in our link section: viewtopic.php?f=64&t=152167

I'm not sure if that's what you're looking for, but there are certainly many links.
