Is your CPO in decent enough shape to scan and correct by hand? Obviously not as good as finding good artwork on the net, but maybe a fallback solution? If yours isn't, maybe contact Neverending Project - maybe his is in better shape for scanning.

What about buying an original on ebay - do they ever show up there? Imagine that's something you've already looked into though.

Been looking on ebay.  Mine is pretty beat up and attached (making it hard to scan with handlebars attached, etc).   I'd buy NOS, repro, just the artwork file, etc...

Can't the cp be dismantled, making it easy to scan?

Add my name to the list of "folks." And I am on the lookout for a marquee too - or even a good scan of one so I can try to vectorize it.

I do believe I can provide a good marquee image file... just give me a place to put it...

I have a vector of the Marquee. I'll try and upload it soon (I am at work)

Let me know what you find. I got a good scan from Frizzle and from Encryptor, and began work today on vectorizing it. If you have a good vector, no need to spend all my time doing it again.

Just out of curiosity, why wasn't it shared on localarcade or somewhere else?
