revision of Indiana Jones Lost Journal

Nice work on the timeline! I’m not sure if it helps (or if you’ve already found them) but I’ve been referring to this for the full timeline and this for explanations of many parts of it to refresh my memory after watching episodes or reading material.
 
Okay, it took a while but I took photos of the drawing from my DVD set, used a scanning app to put them in black and white, carefully remove all the scanning artifacts, and replaced the text with my font for Indy. I will do this for all, but have only finished it for the Mexico Map. I have attached the original photo, the scan version, the version without text, and a screenshot of the final thing.
A note on the font. I use 3 different fonts in my Journal, all carefully chosen to look like they are the same person as their handwriting changes:
FG Rochelle Regular 1908-1910
Deluxe Edition (I used the free demo and replaced the punctuation with Haypearl Demo) 1912-1914
Escape Signature 1916 onward
My logic was that I wanted to show handwriting change and, thinking of my own, it changes a lot from 8-12 and from 12-16 but after 16 it has been reasonably consistent. I chose the fonts to have similar Fs, Ss, Es and As in both capital and lower case, be similar to souces I found for the screen props and Indy's signature, and get steadily more streamlined and smooth as he ages, since that's what my handwritting has done

I found this postcard that was apparently a original prop from the show. Luckily found the same image through rever image search. I'd say this might have been in Indy's Journal as well
Its the French 1928 monument for Escadrille Lafayette. These postcards are genuine to but use it context for Indy it can only be used from 1928 onwards.

I have completed cleaning up the Charles Church scan I did. I intentionally removed the watercolor sections since I plan to either add that by hand or more likely leave it out. Hope it helps with anyone doing their own pages!

My most recent diary from Magnoli had less pages than the previous ones I had purchased. Not sure what happened there. I as short about 20 pages I think. Though on his website he says its 300+ pages.
