note that 40320*14673 is 591615360, which indicates that the file
you're trying to read is truncated.

did you try the workaround I suggested:

(this is likely to give you another error message, though)

you can ask PIL to read everything except the last line from the file, by
modifying the size and tile attributes before you call any other method:

    >>> im = Image.open(...)
    >>> im.size = (40320, 14673-1)
    >>> im.tile = [('raw', (0, 0, 40320, 14673-1), 18L, ('L', 0, 1))]
