We found these notes written on the walls in our living room, under 1 layer of wallpaper, a layer of paint, and 2 more layers of wallpaper, all apparently applied since 1960.

Can anyone decipher any more of these messages? I can’t make out some of the words. Also, they seem somewhat contradictory in the dates and who deserves the credit… Did they change their wallpaper between June and August?

    i’m sure you can find some image deconvolution software that can decipher what that says! maybe it tells you where the secret aliens are hiding.

    I downloaded and inverted the colors, then sharpened and played with the hue. The result is cosmos-looking and it seems to help with readability.
