Our new sign

Nice Job Eric!!
 I have a few of the different signs that Eric's brother reproduces and the quality is Awesome!! I'm going to buy one of these for my shop. '>

Yeah... they're dated twice really....WE-06 and ©2006 The Coca-Cola Company, All Rights Reserved.  Limited Run of 1000
all along the bottom..
The real signs are made of steal and not embossed... these are made of heavy gauge aluminum so they won't rust,are sturdy, the bottle and fishtail shape is embossed so they can easily be identified as reproductions if someone tries to scratch off the dates. And are smaller (too $$$ to make as
big as originals)

Signs today actually use a thick ink process that is baked on.... no one uses paint anymore
(environment stuff... we have looked and looked but if anyone knows of a place let me know.)

The last few signs we've had made have been up in Ohio.... They coat them with a plastic film
and their quality has been the best... We're getting better.

I do all the art on my little PC here at home in a program called Freehand
Which is the same program I'm working on decals (hopefuly this fall for all of us)
It is all spot color like the old time signs not 4 color process where you see millions of little dots
like on the cheap smaller signs....

I'll try and pick up working on the decals again this fall and do some caps and maybe some
square logo type areas for the square top machines

How do you get around licensing fees to Coca Cola for using their trademark?  Or do you not worry about that because of the limited run of signs? I personally could care less about such things, but I'm just curious.

EDIT:  It looks like you are authorized.  Does Coke have to approve every sign you make?  $35 seems inexpensive for all the work I'm sure you put in.
