: Does anyone have a hi-res scan of this, and/ or can put me in touch with the creator of this poster to clear copyright?

: It is for a book on British rock art to be published this autumn; it is URGENTLY needed. Like, by the end of this week -- Friday 19th March.
Hi, Don't think you will have a problem with copyright as the background image looks like a generic landscape photo (unlikely to be copyrighted - as the orignal source has to prove ownership/ date and proof of image) - and these types of images are easily obtainable from copy free agencies and the text/ graphics is photoshopped over the top (by the promoter)- therefore you could argue the original photo has been heavily modified and intended not to look like the original - so unless the owner of scarlet pimpernal promotions is still active (unlikely - check companies house) and can prove ownership over their name then neither sources have ownership over flyer copyright - most promoters and flyer art copyright was done under the radar of legitimate trading anyhow - just look at all the dali/ escher art used on flyers ;)
