Awesome collection!
Putting on my digital preservation hat, I'd be interested in learning more about where the original scans live and why they're watermarked (could be something to do with how old the site is?) It's great that the site is backed up by the Internet Archive, but I feel like this collection could be better served if the original scans were added to the IA as well.
It's hard to really enjoy the images with the watermarks.
+1 not sure why they bothered, they're hardly Getty Images material.
People bother with watermarks so their images aren't stolen and used for profit: https://petapixel.com/2017/11/27/netflix-stole-vhs-cassette-...

I want to tell them "get over yourself."
Maybe you get over yourself. You have no right to tell people what is important to them.
