Le Gal M (1959)

I have a question about the scaling of illustrations in old works for which often only digital copies are avasilable.
Here it concerns
Le Gal M (1959) Discomycètes de Congo Belge d'après les récoltes de Madame Goossens-Fontana. Bull Jard bot État 29:73–132
Does someone have access to a printed version and can tell me the width of the print space?
I only have Le Gal's book about Madagascar for comparison: there the print space is 126 mm broad.
Thanks.

You must not scan it, it exists online. You only need to tell me the width of the text. I need a scale for Fig. 22 on p. 127. If you put a ruler of min. 5 cm length together with this page on the scanner, I can calculate the correct scale according to the magnification given in the caption.
