well ye could bid on the brochure ------ it's only 99p at the moment

then you could make it about as high rez as any available scanner could handle.... if we assume the pic is about 3x2 inches and you have a scanner with a sharp 600dpi optical rez, then that's a nice 1600x1200 2-megapixel screen-filler

I can't remember to be perfectly honest. I just saw the image, saved it and that was that. Thought I might have added it to my bookmarks but I haven't. Sorry guys!

auction's still open!
might bid for it myself if no-one else is going to lay down the necessary two quid fifty (it's a ludicrous £1.50 postage..)
PS the wikipedia derby page actually has a link to a montrohuge version...

1457 x 826 pixels should be enough for a 7 x 4 inch image at around 208 dpi ---- close to the resolution some photo shops actually use for APS reprints with digital developing systems. (worked on the counter at one, briefly - in fact that might be the official size, as its more like 216dpi - but they dont quite give you the full 7x4 inches, more like 6.8 x 3.9..)
i.e. reasonably large and sharp.
Or you could have an almost A4-filling 9.7 x 5.5 inches (it'll cover the width of most people's chests) at a still pretty good 150dpi.
(that's rubbish for text but perfectly fine for images until someone has their nose against your sternum)

That reminds me of this t-shirt I saw a girl wearing once and it read:
"I can see your mouth moving but all I hear is blah blah blah"
