Where can I get/buy pressed Ginkgo leaves?

Hi, I am an artist and have recently started used pressed ginkgo leaves in my mixed media collages.
Do you know where I can buy nicely pressed, flat ginkgo leaves? My sister has been getting them for me from a friend's tree. I hate to keep asking. I ordered some from a pressed flower place in California and they were unusable! They stacked the leaves all together and pressed them......the stems from the stacked leaves made 'bruised" dark lines criss crossing all the leaves. I can't believe they would pressed the leaves in that way.
I would appreciate any information you could give me.

    Hello: My Ginkgo tree (massive) will be shedding leaves within a few days.
    I live in Springfield, Ohio, and would give you all you can cart off for a 25$ fee to cover the inconvenience.
    Alternatively, I will ship a box of your chosen size for the $25 plus the
    actual shipping costs. Your call.....

    Greetings!

    I live in Illinois, USA, and wondered please, if anyone knows who might directly purchase gingko leaves!

    My parents have an old beautiful tree, that yields many, many lovely leaves...I always intended to see
    if I could find a good home from them!

    Perhaps an artists' consortium, or in the health care field?

    Thank you for any and all comments and advice.

    Cheers, Christy
