Put an alert on eBay or amazon. You will be notified if it comes in.
I would just take a good photo or scan of this wallpaper and go to pixers.us or some other company that specialised in creating posters/decals and have one made
you might do a test small one first to make sure the colours match up and if you like the result, order a big one in whatever size you want - 20 x 30, even
I don't recommend making a copy of the paper through any service. A good service won't because it is a copyright violation. A bad service will, but it is still breaking the law. It seems like a harmless crime, but I would not want to risk it, but that is just me. Sorry to be a Debbie Downer :(
Ebay, Etsy and other sites get new stock daily. If you set up a Google search, you will be notified via email here are the instructions on how to do this:

thanks for this, i really didn't know
i just always try to find the quick and dirty solution to a problem and know that if under that circumstance that's what I'd try ;)
i think someone really needs to open up an online shop for discontinued wallpaper, so many people ask about it!
PS...I agree about the wall paper shop. I see tons of rolls at the flea and yard sales and even Goodwill and Salvation Army...every time I go I see loads of it!!! HMMM...maybe that would be good idea to scoop it up!!! That is a neat idea. Need to mull on that one!
Hi Jean Genie, most people don't know about copying wallpaper violating copyright...I know because my best friend and my hubby both worked in copy/print shops at one point or another and they were warned they could lose their jobs if they copied copyrighted items without permission. It goes for a lot of things even fabrics and tee shirt fronts...now people try to copy those things to make their own things at home with these new fancy dance printers out there...the world is a changing and it is spinning my head around for sure!!!
You will probably be very, very lucky if you find this pattern as the complete collection has been discontinued.
Most of this brand is sold in the UK but there are dealers in the US.
The brand is really Gallerie and the pattern number is EM17053 in the Emporia collection so when looking for this pattern remember to list the Gallerie brand name also just in case it is listed under that name.
You might try finding companies in the US that sell the Gallerie brand and either call or write to them to see if they have any of this discontinued pattern. Some may still have a roll or two stuck in their back room. This is a long shot but I know people who have found older patterns using this method.
Here are a couple of links that you might send these companies a message and ask about this pattern.

Here is a pattern like yours (or from that collection) but in a darker color.
