Poster/Brochure Purchased on eBay

When I purchased this brochure on eBay, I didn't expect it would unfold to such a large size! Even better, I got it using "make offer" on eBay for only $16. Here is how it unfolds:

And then the inside ... this one is worth making some posters.

That is sweet...wonder how we could scan it and make posters?
David EilersNovember 15, 2017 at 3:53 PM
Bob: I can scan it in chunks and piece it together with photoshop if need be. Jimmmmm: My secret is out! Who needs pants? TJ: That would be great!

Pants please. They sell them on eBay as well.

There are stores that can press it, scan each side, scale them to your desire and print them out just like new ones. I would by front and back copies. They have the tubes to place the rolled posters into for shipping. You can have the back cut and pasted then printed out and I can mount them into frames on backer board and matt to match. It would be coooolllll.

I don't know what the copyright rules are on advertising But Those look good enough to have a high quality proof done for ....posterity

I scanned the poster side at Kinkos today. However, it needs to be cleaned up in photoshop, so that will take me some time. If you look near the corners, you'll see some color loss for example. Some of the folds showed up as well. I've cleaned stuff like this up in the past, so it won't be too difficult. It will just take some time. - Dave

Print them up as posters and sell them off the eWillys site. Or secretly to your biggest fans. Psst....put me down for two! Cody
