Please help me find a good pic of this VW squareback ad.

My wife would do anything for a print of this ad I took a picture of years ago at a bug run. Any ideas where to look? I have been searching for years.

It’s off a sales brochure

I probably have that brochure and was going to say I could scan it at 600dpi but it looks like someone made a composite images from multiple pages of the brochure?

I wonder if he did that himself or someone used to sell them.
Or if it's somehow original? It looks almost too nice to be from the 1960s.
I've never seen it before but it's cool.

don't think it's original vw, wouldn't it have a logo on it? and given that there's a reuters split bus poster underneath I suspect it was part of an unofficial print range.
poster-rama have the squareback image but not the total mix

no reason, with good quality scans, that it couldn't be re-done by a decent print shop

Thank everyone! I'll look for some high-quality scans and try to recreate it in photoshop.

I am striking out. I can't find high-rez anywhere. I am so mad at myself for not buying it. EverettB if you have the original, I'd love to recreate it and share it here.

What's best format for you?

I normally do "hi-res" stuff at 600dpi and in JPG but if you prefer something else, I can do that.

Update:
I had a much cleaner/brighter version of the above brochure but it's in German.
The large image of the Squareback goes across the fold so this brochure should be easier to combine together.

New page:

The images linked there are resized smaller for online viewing.

Below the images:
There's a ZIP file download of the original 600dpi scans, in JPG format.

I did NOT scan the English text that was used on that poster but I do have the English version of that brochure and can 600dpi scan that one page if you need the text. I suspected you might be re-creating the text in Photoshop anyway so let me know.
