Title: Need hand lettering done
Post by: Bob K on May 15, 2005, 07:40:27 pm

Hi all:

I need someone to do the hand lettering on the Vendo Spin-Top coin mech cover. It's small enough that I can send it out easily (and cheaply). The guy that used to do my lettering is nowhere to be found

.

This is the piece:

Can anyone recommend someone that I can send it to? :hopefull:

Thanks,
Bob

Bob,

I'll try to locate the last guy I had lettering done by...
This guy is a thrid generation sign painter and all the work he did for me was borderline spectacular!
Give me a few days to see if I can dig him up...

Jim - any luck locating your sign painter?

Terry, maybe you could hook me up with your guy?

Bob,

Sorry for the delay!
I called his number but his cell number must have changed and there was no forwarding number...
I have to track him down; but if Terry can get you connected with his sign painter, go that route because this may take a little leg work to get in touch with Gary, the sign painter I have used...

Hey BOB,
I'll hook you up. I've been away from the computer for a few days. Been way to busy, just added a septic system to my shop. Lots of digging.... If you know what I mean.
