Final Update:
Thank you everyone for your help. I have a color version of the cover. I appreciate all the help.
***** The thing is found. *******
Update:
I have a black and white copy of the cover now. Thank you. I am waiting to see if that's enough for the project.
Please note:
- I have tired the library route
- I have tried the magazine directly route
- If you don't have easy access to a physical copy that can be photographed or scanned, there is no need to reply.
I have a request and I think the Fediverse is the place where I might find help with this.
For more than 2 years I've been looking for a copy of Nature: specifically volume 353 issue 6341. It's the 19 September 1991 issue.
I need a good photograph or scan of the cover art. You can keep the magazine. My FIL has an article in it and my BIL and husband want to make a gift that uses the cover art.
Thank you for your help.

Was the cover art from your FIL's article, or from a different article in that issue?
You may be able to contact the lead author on the article that contributed the cover art, if it's not your FIL.
Don't know if that's helpful...
