Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Invitation to the Inauguration of Barack Obama

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Original - Invitation to attend the 2009 Inauguration of Barack Obama. The invitations were individually engraved, leaving a raised impression on the front, and an indentation on the back of the sheets. The invitations were produced in a 100% green manner, using recycled paper, by companies certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC).
Reason
A very detailed image of the Invitation to the Inauguration of Barack Obama, showing detaling in the engraving, fibres in the paper, etc, etc. I've chosen to nominate this version because the original .png file, File:Inaugural invitation 2009.png is too large to be thumbnailed and used in articles, while the smaller .png version, Image:Inaugural invitation 2009 72dpi.png, doesn't show the detail this one does. There is also an alternative file, File:Reverse of seal of Obama inauguration invitation.jpg, which shows the reverse of the invitation and the indentation of the seal.
Articles this image appears in
Invitation to the Inauguration of Barack Obama, Barack Obama 2009 presidential inauguration, and United States presidential inauguration
