need a cover scan

Postby Norm » Sat Apr 14, 2012 11:51 am

... for The Project.

It's a tall order but hopefully someone can help me.

I'd like a scan of the Chet Atkins At Home album cover. I realise the thing won't fit a regular scanner but just making sure all of him and that guitar is included.

Here's the 'tall order' part. I'd like it to be as pristine as possible, a tall order because it was one of his better albums and whoever has it has probably handled it a lot and the things are now 55 years old. The samples on line are too small for my purposes. If I can get a good one I can have a friend do some voodoo with photoshop to clean it up but the less 'fixing' the better the product will look

You have one that looks pretty good? PM me for an email address...

Thanks in advance

Had two come in just minutes apart!
Both of them look to be mint. Hendrik Sibma and Barry Oliver are Princes!

Thanks guys!

Just for the fun of it. Is this the one?

Yes it is.

There are several available online but most have been resized and I wanted a basic scan. The album is over fifty years old and not many people's old album sleeves can still be around and not show wear. Barry and Hendrik both had mint samples.

I have tried ordering this LP, but the message was that they don´t ship to my address in Europe, or abroad at all maybe?

If it's somethng like Ebay that's probably the case.

Packing an LP for shipment to Europe could be a chore to some.
