Having trouble finding a decent vector of a caduceus. Tried the Corel clipart, but not only are they ugly, but require tons of clean up. I need this for a carved HDU sign.

If you have one you'd like to share, please email it to:

tjw_1959@hotmail.com

Thanks, in advance.

I used to have a decent caduceus, but after eating too much fast food, I now have a badonkadonk.

Seriously, if you don't get one soon, you could Google Image Search for caduceus, click on 'Large' so that you get a good quality image, then Autotrace it.

Might still require a little clean up but would probably look better than the Corel versions.

Thanks, Elaine, but I'd hate to pay for one not knowing how much clean up would be required.

Tim

Do yourself a favor and check out what Elaine has mentioned. I have used the images from this source and find them to be first class. You will not need to do any clean up with them.

Like Cat said, vector art mega collection. Their images are ready to cut and a bargain at only $4.00 each.

Now if you are asking for a freebie, if someone has made one from scratch and wants to share it with you, that is fine. But sharing purchased art is a no no.

I once bought one from Gemini. I gold leafed it and attattached to a sandblasted redwood circular piece that had a dark background,.....it looked really, really, good.

If I'm not mistaken. each medical profession has it's own specific caduceus, right down to EMT's, check it out before you commit to the final project.

CLEAN IT and charge the customer. If the customer can't supply you with clean artwork then THEY PAY.
