Do you have a copy of the Newspaper?
If you have, then take it to a local print shop as found in most towns. Apart from just making a copy, they will be able to take out the "yellow" (as "Pepsodent" used to advertise), and give you a nice clean Black and White facsimile. Done all the time, nothing new about it. Interesting article though. Good luck. BY.

A report on our local TV programme was showing the recent finding of HMS Ullswater which was sunk in the channel in WW2 after "encountering" a Schnellboot. The daughter of one of the crew was taken down for the commemeration service and to finally "Lay to rest" her fathers memory.

 After the service, she was taken to have a look at the last remaining one, the subject of this thread and was stunned at the size (How BIG) it was.
