So I responded to this and got a quote back from Ethan's colleague of $53.38 for a reprinted page. I just wasn't expecting that at all. And to be honest, all I really want is a JPEG or PDF of the covers in a better quality resolution than what you can get saving an image from social media. Did anyone else happen to get a higher res JPEG or PDF of these?

I called the WSJ and my understanding is that the $53.38 is for both covers of section A1 and B1. If you just want one cover I believe the price is approximately $26.

I assume these higher cost versions are printed on a better paper than just newsprint as well.

$26 for a full color large format print isn't too terrible in all honesty if it is in fact on a nicer quality paper.

First thing I did Sunday was buy a W-S Journal.

That changes things a little bit. The way I took it was that it would be a reprinted cover on the standard news print paper. Charging that much for a paper I would think was about $1.50 at the news stand sounded like extortion, so glad that's not actually the case.
