Converting scanned images for use in epubs.

I am converting OCR text of old magazines into epubs and have some questions.

1. How should I balance image quality and size? What size should I try to keep my epubs under to be easily usable? The images are not fine art and often not even good art. I have been downsampling and saving with reduced quality, but do not want to go too far.

2. Some of the pictures have text in blank spaces and I don't know if I can do that in html. I am attaching one of the more extreme examples and I would like to know what other people would do with it. It is two pages.
