This could have done with a higher resolution scan to help bring out the details.  :(

Best I can do

Hi Irene,
Thanks for trying.
I have re-scanned at 600bpi, but I don't think it will help.

Hi Irene,
Sorry about the scan rate.
The settings menu on my HP scanner are not user friendly.
I think this is 600bpi.
