:D  now, that's fine!

I have a 65# Gainesville Kodiak laying around stripped for several years now. Will there be Gainesville "decals" available as well?

BD,

I think that is wonderful that Al jr. is picking up where his father left off.  I just thought I would mention that after many months of phone calls and calling in favors, I have been successful in recreating decals for my Ben Pearson Palomino and my Damon Howatt Hunters.  Not to take anything away from Al or his family, but if anyone needs any of those type decals, please PM me.

Lon,

What I would need is a very good high resolution digital photo of the existing decal.  Once I have that, the image can be reconstructed and printed.  It should not be too much of a problem especially since we have the Ben Pearson Arrow already on file.  Cost wise, I would not able to give you a quote until I get the photo and my graphics person tells me how long it will take her to recreate it.  Printing is pretty easy, we use a adhesive backed clear vinyl and I am also working on getting the decals printed on wet slide vinyl.  It is alot thinner than the adhesive backed vinyl but much harder to find a printer that it is compatible with.  If you get the photo, please pm me and I will get you an email address to send it to.  Good luck.

I need a 1962 Pearson Pinto also. I refinished my first recurve.
I try not to let my mind wander...It is too small and fragile to be out by itself.

Guys

I am in the process of recreating the 1962 Pinto logo. It will be recreated in outline in Adobe Illustrator. The quality near perfect. I’ll share the file with you.  I’ll be back on this thread soon, supper’s ready....

Hello to all on Trad Gang. I am Al's son Alan.  I first want to  apologize  for not getting this going sooner.  I'm really  sorry  to keep you guys hanging.  But down to business.  I have to get all the info I can off of dad's computer to really get this thing going.  In talking with the printer, dad had made about 2 doz. orders and he wasn't specific on a lot of things.  Meaning one order was "Bear Glass Powered Super Kodiak", no year or color etc. I will be in CA. on March 12 thru 16 and I will get everything I can and let you guys know.  Since I am new to this I know I will be needing a lot of help figuring this stuff out.  I promise I will do my best to accomadate everybody's needs and carry on dad's business the best I can.  Thanks for all of your support.  It warms my heart to see how much my dad was loved and respected.  I know I don't have the knowledge he had yet but be will see if you can teach an old dog some new tricks. I want to apologize for any misspelling now. FYI My home e-mail is [email protected]
