VCP has a large database of pictures.

Also, most auction houses should have solid scans. Search under prior auctions.

Then once you get the cards on your screen, screen shot them

Maybe I missed something in one of the other threads, but after reading through the linked document is seems the markers used are unique to the set chosen. Are you going to have to come up with a different set of markers for each set? If so, how are you planning to accomplish this on sets where there is not a huge number of samples to draw from?

It's a good question - my plan here is to start narrow and then expand - the rarer the set the more scant the data for sure. It's something that we'd have to expand set by set starting with the cross section of popularity and value.

I will post a Dropbox link if anyone does want to post picture. I really appreciate all the above advice - I'll try to see if the images on VCP and the existing grading companies are large enough to warrant a web scrape...

I have high res scans of my former 33 goudey near set on google docs. I can give you access to view and download. But, the scans include multiple cards per scan. Do you need it to be one card per scan/photo ?

Heritage has extremely high resolution scans as well. They've sold thousands of Goudeys in all grades over the years.
