I've been conducting a bit of research, and I have discovered something from the NASA History Office that I never realized existed: Every single JSC Roundup newspaper from 1961 until 2001, archived in PDF format.
The Roundup, the official newspaper of the NASA Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center, has been published since November 1, 1961, by the Public Affairs Office. The publication began as a bi-weekly (Vol. 1, No. 1), changed to a weekly release with Vol. 27, No. 12 (June 3, 1988), and returned as a bi-weekly with Vol. 36, No. 14 (April 25, 1997).

Every printed issue has been scanned and converted to electronic format using Adobe Acrobat PDF for easy searching and viewing.

Very interesting stuff!

I have found that most of the Johnson Space Center (JSC) "RoundUp" issues on the JSC site to be poor quality black and white scanned versions.

Does anyone have any good quality coloured scanned versions, please?

The Roundup was never printed in color — it was always black and white...

OK, same question then but anything other than the poor quality scans where you can barely make out the people in the photos.

All times are CT (US)
