Romancing the Stone Joan Wilder Paperback Book Covers

[AlanCottonwood]

Howdy Folks:

I found these three paperback jackets in a movie memorabilia auction catalog accompanied by some very satisfyingly high resolution scans suitable for producing full-sized, press quality (300dpi) replicas. I've seen other versions of these skulking about the www (eBay, yourprops, etc...) offered at varying hardback and paperback sizes; however the auction catalog description asserts the original size is 9.5 x 7.5" so... for those that want it, there you have it. Your bookshelf never looked so... tawdry.

Howdy Odin:

We should all drop to our knees and clasp our hands together in grateful prayer for memorabilia auction catalogs democratizing the cultivation of movie prop replicas offering HQ photos/scans suitable for printing!

Howdy MakeBelieve:

Do you know the story of your book jackets' creation? There's some ponderous things going on with the covers' compositional balance about which I'd be curious to learn more.

No, sorry.
