I have it!  I wrote a program (over a year or two) that can read in
various picture formats (added over time) and output different picture formats.
I went and found the Spock poster on the net, and fixed up a program
that could read in the FORTRAN carriage control format printer file
and then I could output it in whatever form I wanted.  I also have
a program that I collected that converts fortran format to CR w/o LF to
do the over-printing.  Respond to me via e-mail and I'll send you a copy
(Zipped and uuencoded) of the printer file, and the source for converting
FORTRAN to CR,LF printer files.
