Title: High-res original scans of Crime Smashers?
Post by: hopelnicholson on February 25, 2018, 10:51:41 AM

Hello! I am looking for access to the original scans of Crime Smashers that feature Sally the Sleuth for help with restoration in an upcoming reprint. The RAR/ZIPs on the site contain 150-300 DPI files, and ideally I'd like 600 DPI+ to work from.


I am a publisher who has licensed, restored, reprinted, and distributed the comic collections Nelvana of the Northern Lights, Brok Windsor, Polka Dot Pirate, and Wow Comics #01, all Canadian 1940s comics.


I know one of the scanners is BHComics, but I don't know enough about the scanning community to know how to get in touch with them.


Any help would be much appreciated! I'm hoping the original raw scans were saved on a server somewhere and can still be accessed.
You can also email me at hope@bedsidepress.com

The only ones that would have RAW scans are the scans of 2, 3, 12, and they would only be 300 dpi, and the books are no longer available to be scanned. Don't know what would be the status of 15 RAWS, but all the others, from BHComics, sadly, you are out of luck.
