Lost houses of Turku

Up till today I knew only one papermodel on sale in whole Finland - Turku castle model sold in Turku castle. Today I went into a bookstore having a bargain sale. Saw there a new book: Lost houses of Turku pt2. But there was also these small models of lost houses sold separately.

Next Sunday I´m going to take a walk in the city with camera and take pictures of places where these lost houses have been located or if weather is bad I´ll start building models.

These houses are printed on A5 size paper (they are actually postcards) so i thought to scan and enlarge them. Went to buy new colour cartridges and found this:

Looked promising, costs down to less than half. But when started printing got this:

Cartridges name is Peach so am I cheated or what?

Looks like you've got a lot of peach in your hands. What bookstore was it and is the more of them - if so I have to drive there to pick up my copy aswell.
About other Finnish paper models that I know of:
Luostarinmäki (one block)
Hviträsk (architects Lindgren-Gezelius-Saarinen)
Helsinki City Museum (two old buildings and old trams)
