Help with getting this as a poster =S

I'm trying to look for a site/place that does custom print posters and a source for a high res (as high res as it can get) image of a 1969 April issue Playboy cover. I'm not sure if Playboy does vintage cover poster prints since I didn't find any on their website. Here's the image I want:

Preferably something around 25x35..I'll check my other poster sizes when I get home. But I want those huge movie poster size ones.
Thanks.

If I'm not mistaken, her name is Lorna Hopper. My other pics are NSFW so stick to google.

Contact Playboy for a high res image?
OR get your hands on the actual issue and scan it in on maxed DPI?

You could always check out
The Rasterbator Online. You send them an image, they can blow it up to some pretty large wall-size posters. If I remember correctly, they send you a multi-page PDF of your image. You just have to print the PDF and piece it together to display it.

You might need to print it yourself though, many companies dont want to infringe on copyright laws....

Rasterbator is ok but I need to worry about what kind of board to use and if I want something that's close to the quality I want, I'll need like 40 sheets of paper. But thanks. Bookmarked it just in case =p
I think I'll it off at Kinkos/FedEx Office soon.
Finished screenshot + cropping.
Max Res:
Looks like it'll cost me about $90~$100 including the frame.

If you print large sized pictures with microsoft paint, it automatically rasterbates it for you, but you still have to put in some work trimming the edges and sticking it together.
