  • dezoomify-extension

    A browser extension to detect zoomable images in web pages and downloading them with dezoomify

  • I've taken a quick look at some of the Wayback links other people posted. It seems they used some sort of "image zooming software" on the website, which is pretty common for sites like this (Ancestry and FamilySearch do the same thing). This is what would have made it hard to save the letters originally, as it doesn't just load the jpeg file, instead it progressively loads areas as you zoom into them. I've had success in using dezoomify plugin on Firefox to get around this (also on Chrome), see: https://github.com/lovasoa/dezoomify-extension
