Digital archeology -- verifying a signed Usenet message from 1995

Hello,

What should I be looking at to work with an old version of GnuPG having 
sufficiently outdated cipher and checksum algorithms to verify a Usenet 
message¹ from 1995?

Should I try to get Debian Hamm (or earlier) in a 32-bit VM and work 
from there?  Or would another approach be recommended?

I realize that the cipher and checksum algorithms have moved on since 
1995 so this is mostly a formality to see that the copy is accurate in 
lieu of MD5 etc.

Regards,
Lars

(Secure Shell) Remote Login Program", from 12 July 1995 to
