Anyone happen to have the file for this “Gimbels Celebrates the Holidays” poster lying around?

This might help:
Elf Poster Final.png

The size of this is of standard US letter or 216 x 279,4 mm, but should be upscaled at least 2 or 3 times.

Did a bunch more.

This one is around 258 x 300 mm, but should be upscaled 2 or 3 times:

These have the same size as the one in the 1st post (216 x 279,4 mm):
Elf Poster Ask Dad.png Elf Poster Ask Mom.png Elf Poster Christmas Street.png Elf Poster Every Kid.png Elf Poster Cool Kids.png Elf Poster Photos With Santa.png Elf Poster Visit With Santa.png Elf Poster Visit Santa Land.png

There are 2 variants for the Photos with Santa poster. The hours are more or less guesstimated in lack of enough reference.

The Mom, Dad and Kids posters had some toys glued under the text:

Now, does anyone have the B&W photo of James Caan playing guitar with Buddy’s mother Susan Wells?

This one might be hard. There really isn’t a good shot of it that shows the whole photo in relatively flat perspective. I’m hoping it leaked from the film’s art dept.

Perhaps you can find someone to upscale this image and clean it up a bit, or you can order it from this place?

I took that image and bunged it through an AI image upscaler I found online, this is the result:

buddys_parents_walter_hobbs_and_susan_wells_photo_frame_0_1.png

It's not incredible quality because the original wasn't incredible. But, it'll print and should look okay.
 
Here's the full photo made from screencap(s):
Buddy's Parents Photo.png

Not perfect at all, but will do for now.

And here's the Greenway Press logo (nobody asked for it, but why not):

Yes, that's what I'm asking - which AI upscaling program. The ones I tried were crap.
 
Did another, better version of the photo:
Buddy's Parents Photo v2.png

And I'm 100% sure I found the photo of the late Mr. Caan used to replace the head in the above photo (taken from his Twitter page - I hope this is not in violation of any rules):

Also, the Photos with Santa poster was updated (added a bunch of commas) in post #3 and now there's only 1 version.

I used the app “Remini”, which uses the same AI backend as MyHeritage.com, just without the subscription. Requires watching a few ads, but it’s free at least. It is specifically made for faces.
 
No one asked for and probably no one will care, but here are 2 more files for your enjoyment.

Probably 4th floor banner (briefly seen in the scene where Buddy checks out the perfect gift - dimensions are 216 x 545 mm, but should be upscaled x2):
Elf Gift Card Banner.png Image4.png
Note: the text under the card is taken from other posters in lack of reference.

Gimbels store directory (seen in the scene with Buddy and Michael jumping in the elevator - same size as the other posters):
Elf Poster Gimbels Floors.png Image23.png
 
Here's the enhanced photo of Buddy's parents (made with Topaz Photo AI):
Buddy's Parents Photo Final.png

And the painting seen in the conference room at Greenway Press (I made this using 3 or 4 screencaps):
