I contacted the Computer History Museum and paid them a small fee to have them scan the first 9 RFCs. I'm happy to say those scans are now online.

My post with interesting excerpts and things I learned looking at the scans: https://write.as/365-rfcs/update-scans-of-early-rfcs

The listing of the scans in their catalog, with a link to the PDF: https://www.computerhistory.org/collections/catalog/102661172
