I wanted to see if I could find this as a poster, but it only comes in 11" x 10" 😕

Looks like the original was a 12x18 book cover in 1949:

You might be able to take the 11x10 version and get it sized up at a print shop!

That's a good, I'll have to start looking around for some where willing to do it

I found framed original posters at auction for $3K to $4K.

11 x 17 reproductions here which is pretty much original size:

Just print it yourself. Tons of poster printing services online for cheap. I used PosterBurner last time and it was good. But probably others are fine. Not a promotion. Just what I used.

Can use this website to upscale the original image so it's higher resolution.

Huggingface has all the AI photo upscale models so check out others if you don't like the results.

Some others below.

Don't use the "upscale your image for free" sites because they're just garbage ads on top of these open source models.

The poster website will say what minimum resolution they need to print usually. So just scale it until you reach that. Zoom in to the photo though and make sure no weird artifacts appear. They'll be more obvious once printed.

Good luck!

Weird. I don't get that. But you can definitely try other sites. One in the US if you're in the states. Tarrifs are garbage for getting anything like this. I think even FedEx will print posters. But probably more expensive.

Important thing is making sure the image is high enough resolution for the size you want.

I ended up ordering the poster from a near by shop. I live in Germany, so that might have been the problem 😅

[–] wheezy@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Nice. Yeah that might have been the problem. Thought I mentioned US based in my original post but I guess not.

[–] SassyRamen@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

Normally I can order stuff from America without problems, but I guess not this time.

[–] SassyRamen@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

Wow, thanks for the step by step!

Sorry I took so long to reply. Here's the poster.

And I double checked the size it's 11x17 inches
