Dagger Of Amon Ra

[Tom]

Does anyone have The Dagger Of Amon Ra's original box and able to scan the back cover...and perhaps the manual's cover?  I have the front box cover scan from the Roberta Williams Anthology, but that's it.  I couldn't find much art (of any quality) on the web.  I'd like to work on a a CD label and back cover, but don't currently have much to work with.  300 dpi at 100%, minimally compressed JPG's would be excellent.  (File size isn't an issue.)

i used to have the box cover although as of this moment im not sure where it is. HOWEVER i do have the hintbook which not only has the cover from the box it has the hand painted dialogue pictures that are seen in game (in b/w unfortunatly but still very detailed)

get back to me if you still need it.

Are the pictures "screenshots" from the game, or new renderings of screenshots?  Would screen captures look better, or are these pics higher resolution?

I think I know someone you could contact, in fact various people, who would be only too happy to assist you- let me know.

these are copy's (scanned and printed into the hint book i guess) of the original hand drawn artwork. its actually kind of neat because theres a photo in there of someone im not sure even made it into the final game.

I'd sure like to see one or two of those pics, if you don't mind emailing them to me.  Since I don't have anything else to use, anyway, I won't be picky.  I'll probably end up using some screen shots as well...

I have the original box and materials.

Thanks much, Martin!  Give me until tomorrow to download them, though.  (Working straight through the next 12 hours.)

Got 'em!  Thank you so much -- these images are perfect; should work just great!
