Not sure where to put this.
I'm looking to buy a life-size poster of the kosel. I saw this once in someone's house and asked them where they got it and they said the local chabad gave them out or sold them a few years ago. I contacted the local chabad and they said I can get it from shluchim.org. I went there but you have to be a shlucha/member to buy anything from them, which I am not. So I asked the chabad rabbi who sent me there if he would be willing to buy it for me and I would pay him back. He was, but they were out of stock, and he said I should check back with him in a few months' time. I did, and they were still out of stock (or restocked and were out again.) This happened several times and I don't want to drive him crazy, especially since he is totally doing me a favor. Does anyone know what this poster that I'm looking for is and how I can get it or something like it?
All leads appreciated. Thanks!

What do you mean "life-sized"? A gigantic poster the size of the actual Kotel to stick on the side of a huge Kotel-sized building?
Or a wall sized mural that shows the entire Kotel from a slight distance?
Or a wall sized mural that shows a wall-sized section of the Kotel (I.e., a 1: scale photo of he stones of the wall itself)?

A wall sized poster that shows the entire kosel from a slight distance, but is still a close enough view that if you go right up to it it will seem pretty life-like, like as if you're really in front of the stones.

You can really take any digital photo of the kotel and have it made into a poster.

I know, I've thought of that, but this was done professionally, and was a great photo, better than any I have, and I have some pretty good ones. It was taken at a slight angle and had a bit of sky in it. Beautiful color sky I may add

Thanks so much for the sites. Do they sell huge size pictures, though? I would imagine not.
