Help restoring early issues of Mark-8 Newsletter

At least the first 3 issues of the Mark-8 Newsletter were published by
Hal Singer using a ditto machine. I have copies of these issues which
range in quality from faded and smeared to _really_ faded and smeared. I
would like to try to "restore" these items to readable form - anybody
have any ideas? The worst pages are faded beyond simply photocopying
and/or OCR - I'm wondering if there may be some way to chemically "lift"
the images, UV light, etc.

As near as I can tell, all the information in these issues was re-issued
in the first three issues of the Micro-8 Newsletter (archived at Jim
Kearney's site), so no actual info is at risk, but it would be nice to
at least share .pdfs of the "real" issues.

Any interest in .pdfs of the Micro-8 Newsletter? As Jim notes, the
originals were none too easy to read, but I may try messing around with
them if anyone cares.
