File:Electra Teletext sample.jpg

Screenshot of an Electra teletext page, looks like a front page menu, story headlines are consistent with events on Thursday, January 3, 1985.

This copy grabbed back via an out-of-date Wikipedia mirror(!) at [1]. However, the original source was a scanned product catalogue which is no longer online AFAICT. (See "Other information" below for explanation).

Electra (teletext)

The entire screenshot

Teletext is inherently low resolution, and this is also low-res

To illustrate a typical Electra page.

As all of Electra's content is likely to be copyrighted- certainly anything representative- it is impossible to represent such content without the use of copyrighted material.

Background... (1) Decent-quality version of image uploaded to Wikipedia for "fair use" (after being retrieved from a scanned product catalogue someone put online- *that* was the original source)

(2) Some time later it becomes clear that it has been deleted from WP due to insufficient "fair use" explanation

(3) I have a look, but I can't find our copy online, and the original source seemed to be gone. Best available is a lower-res cached Yahoo! image search thumbnail from a site that copied WP (and *they* no longer had *their* full-res copy!) Uploaded this poor-quality version as better than nothing.

(4) Re-check Yahoo cache years later, turns out the original version available via a site that copied a 2007 version of our article. So we have the original again. :-/
