My suggestion for "repairing" the covers:  The MGI Photo Suite software has 
some filters in it that I have used many times to "cartoonize" 
images.  There is also a very nice blemish and scratch remover that I have 
used to repair old photos I have scanned.  Talk about nice!

E-mail me one of those poor quality covers and I'll try to run it through 
MGI or LVIEW and see what I can come up with.  I'm not sure where my 
Rainbow mags are right now or I would just do a scan myself and supply an 
example.
