Austin Powers: Swedish Made Enlarger Pumps And Me Book

[jojomanzo]

This isn't a very hard one to "redesign" it is just one font and some strokes.

Has anyone ever seen the Austin Powers with Pump image in High Res? I know it was used on all those novelty pumps they sold way back when, but I can't find a single image or poster in this pose. Does one exist?

Oh Jojo, I'm starting to think we should be best friends.

I have one of those novelty pumps and I swear to god about 2 weeks ago I went looking for it to scan the book and upload it to this site. I found it, just never got around to scanning it.

Wait, did I say I own one?? I swear it's not mine.

The book is quite small so I scanned it at a higher res. Also, the box has a larger picture so in case you wanna 'shop it:

Haha, agreed, I think we will get along fine. It is awesome it came with a receipt and a warranty card, I was going to try those next. I think I will try to separate the handwriting from the card... Thanks for sharing these, I will share my new PSD once I have some work done!

But, to be clear, I only want these for my friend. This is not my bag, baby.

I didn't work on a composite of the two images yet... I kind of like the darker look of the mini-book cover, as opposed to the colors in the box cover.

Here is a real quick comparison of the faces of the two covers... I could probably just work those in, and leave the lower res suit as is, since it has little detail.

I am just trying to figure out the book jacket now.

If you look at the screen caps, or watch the clip (Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery (1997): Personal Effects - Video) The book cover has a black border around it... and it is off center. The book back has a white area of text, also pushed to the left - WAY off center.

Do you think a movie accurate version is best, or should I center the two for the jacket? I am trying to estimate dimensions, as well.
