Question: How can I get a poster made from a book cover for a birthday present!?
I am trying to get a poster made from an old book cover for my brother's birthday!. He has always said that it is the best cover art of all time!. Any ideas how I can get his done, I found an almost mint condition copy of the book, cover has a couple of scratches!. Anywhere I can get a high quality scan/touch-up done!. I found a place online that makes posters, I just need the scan!.

Thank everyone for any help!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Thats real sweet!.

I did something like that!.
I went to a copy shop and had them blow up a page of a book (it was a picture of a watercolor painting) onto a 11 by 17 piece of paper (it cost about 3 bucks) and then because the edges were nothing worth looking at, I framed it in an 11 by 14 frame (about 6 bucks at walgreens)

Worked out well for me
Good luck - hope your brother has a happy birthdayWww@QuestionHome@Com

You may have a tough time finding someplace to do this as it is copyright infringement!. You do not own the rights to the cover art and it would be illegal to copy it!. This is the same thing as copying a song, movie, having copies made of your school pictures or wedding pictures!. No reputable place will copy it for you!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Maybe walgreens!? Walmart I know you can take pictures and get them made into blankets and stuff!.!. good luck!.!. surf the internet!.!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
