I really, really want to frame a poster in my office that is either a classic pulp cover (something like Weird Tales or Doc Savage), or a very old comic book cover. It's got to be the actual cover, price and logo and all, not just an iconic coverish picture.
But surprisingly, I can't really find a source online.
Does anybody know of a source for this type of thing?

No, but back in the '80s I saw a lovely poster reproduction of FF#1.

I've considered having it done myself from some sort of commercial scanner/printer. But I think they would have copyright issues (and probably should).
Although, if I picked a really old one and used an original, it may have expired or something.

You are not breaking any copyright by enlarging a cover for your own private use.

Yes, you might have to inquire first in that case.
