Anybody know of a reasonably-priced scanner that can scan an entire album cover in one go? All the ones I've found are ridiculously pricey.

    I don't think they exist, at least they didn't use to. I ran into the same issue some years ago. The only affordable ones are too small for LPs.

    We sound poor.

    The only oversized one available with a reasonable pricetag is the Mustek A3, it's like $150.
    A3 refers to the size of the scan area, in this case 11.7" (W) x 17.0" (L).
    I bought one years ago and it's....OK.
    I certainly wouldn't suggest it to anyone that needs fine scan jobs, it leaves alot to be desired but I can work with it.
