I modified the image a bit. It contains useful data, but the formatting of the scale is difficult to follow. The formatting in the original 1962 image is better, but the image isn't as nice because it's in black and white and doesn't contain the added information about what is at a given altitude. I have attempted to modify the new image so that it has the format of the old one.

I have also removed the examples of things below sea level on the bottom right. They would be useful to have if the scale went down that far, but since it stops at '0' altitude, they are just clutter. If the scale were extended manually, I would have no problem putting them back in.
