Searching for really old ASCII lineprinter art
I'd like to find the actual datafiles for some of those really old ASCII artworks from the 1970s, once produced on teletypes and lineprinters using character set graphics and/or overprinting, like the Mona Lisa, the Moon, Snoopy, Einstein, etc. Do these exist on the Net, or in the collections of today's ASCII artists? - John
