Pictures from old LEGO Catalogues

Hi, I've always liked those nice dioramas and scenes in the catalogues from the late 80's and early 90's. I was wondering if it's possible to find the original pictures, preferably in high resolution without the sets placed over them. So, for example, there's this catalogue: https://images.brickset.com/library/Catalogues/c90usm2.pdf and I'd like o have the photo on page 13 without the ads for the sets.

Does any of you know if such a thing is available? Or is it maybe something I could purchase from TLG? Has any of you tried this before?

Beautiful aren't they. The hours of childhood imagination projected into these pictures is staggering.

Sorry I can't help you but I just wanted to say that I love those too.

Yeah, I think there's a demand for obvious reasons

It would be great to get a coffee table book of these.

The only thing I'm thinking is isolating some of these shots and doing an image search to see if higher res ones are available.

I have most of these catalogs but I don't think the scans would be worth the time.

Thanks for the idea!
