Believe it or not, I don't have a scanner (or easy access to one). At any rate, I have two scores available to anyone here who would like to scan and post to IMSLP.

They are both full scores for Borodin: Symphony No. 2

1. An Elibron reprint of a 1927 Muzgiz reprint of the first edition Bessel full score, plate 671.

2. Single-sided photocopy of the 116-page professional copyist's score that was issued by Bessel and Breitkopf in around 1920 (1920 copyright claim) - probably because the original Bessel was so full of errors (as Bessel scores tend to be).

I'll be happy to send anywhere in the USA free of charge via media mail (4th class). No need to return, either. Score #2 is pretty dark in many places and would likely require some processing using levels and histogram with graphics software like Photoshop to produce a halfway decent scan for upload at IMSLP.
