To repeat myself a little...
The Oklahoma Historical Society is putting
together a new exhibit called "Oklahoma at the
Movies" celebrating all aspects of Oklahoma's
relationship with the film industry, including
famous Oklahomans who made good in Hollywood and
the image of Oklahoma on the screen. We plan to
use some posters/poster images in our display.
For many of the titles, originals are out of our
budget, so for those, we're looking for images of
high-enough res that we could reproduce them at
least 60% (if not 100%) of their original size
for half-sheets or larger, and 100% of original size for the smaller posters.
If you have the actual poster but not a high-res
image, and you'd be willing to lend us the poster
so we could make a high-res scan of it, that
would be great too. The museum has a HUGE
flatbed scanner and would pay the shipping both ways.
I know Bruce has a selection of these. And some
of the large lobby card images on the Heritage site might work. Anyone else?
Some of the biggest titles we're looking for in image form include:
