So I've worked up a version of Royal Star, based on my Star logo version with star graphic around it. As a lot of these old logos are poorly printed, I've tried to clean this up as best I could. hopefully this will work...

Oh yeah...
You've earned a hearty handshake and a pat on the back! This is amazing stuff, great job!
Thanks

Okay, thanks everybody. Just sent file off to be printed. Hopefully all will go well at that end and the results will be good. Will let everyone know when I get the finished products and we'll take it from there I guess. Stay tuned...

Hey Gang; Sorry for the delay - have been very busy lately. Just wanted to let you know that I picked up the printed logos last week, and the results seem to be very good. Have tried on a smooth head, as well as a textured head, and both seem to adhere nicely, with good, crisp results. Still have a couple of things to get in order, but plan to get back to those who've helped me out in my reference search shortly to get mailing addresses and such, as well as to give you all a rundown on what I have available and related details. Thanks again to everyone who's helped me out so far in this endeavor, and hopefully it will all work out to everyone's benefit. Expect I should have things in order sometime next week, so please stay tuned.

Okay fellas - trying to get my act together over here to make these logos available for purchase - they're all printed up and ready to go, and have even been field tested. have attached some pics to illustrate samples on both smooth, (Stewart) and textured, (Ludwig) heads. I currently have no real experience with shipping, especially international, but I would expect that it shouldn't amount to too much, relatively speaking, as these would be shipped in flat envelopes with some cardboard reinforcement, but won't weigh a whole lot. I will post a price list shortly, with prices based on logo size, as printing cost was based on this factor. I've tried to make considerations for potentially more popular brands and have tried to print more of these. but I really have no idea what will ultimately move and what won't, so I hope you'll bare with me as I try to accommodate everyone to the best of my ability. Quantities are limited, but if there is a demand, I will have more printed, as well as some more brand varieties, so please be patient, and by all means, please keep suggestions and reference coming. As I'd tried to state earlier, some of the more obscure brand names probably aren't worth producing if there isn't a demand for them, though I might consider special orders if an agreeable price can be worked out.
For those of you who have helped me with this process by supplying me with reference material that I'd requested, please forward me your mailing addresses, and let me know which logo you would like and I'll try and get those off to you shortly. Figure I will pay up to $2.00 towards postage on these, but anything beyond that, I would request reimbursement for, so it would probably also be of benefit to you, if you want to order any additional logos, to take advantage of the opportunity for combined shipping. Thinking I'd offer an incentive of $1.00 off on multiple orders in general, but I will get to that when I post an official price list.
I really have no idea how this venture will go, but I hope it goes well, as I've had fun with this project so far, and I know that for myself, I really like how these suckers add the finishing touch to some of these old kits. I will post more pics of some of my other kits with these logos applied when I get a chance - now that the nice weather is approaching I'll have to cart some of these kits outside for some beauty shots. Thanks again guys, and stay tuned for price list.

Alright Gang - Logos are ready, and selection/price pics are prepared. I will package adhesive decals in brown envelope with card reinforcement, and use standard postage to keep costs to a minimum, (unless otherwise requested). I will be shipping from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. I've prepared an instruction sheet insert, and will offer a $1.00 discount on multiple orders. As I'm new to the shipping game, I will try to take orders, and will notify you of total cost once items are shipped, (*Honor system for VDF members*). Paypal payments can be directed to email address on logo price pics,(dorzelblatt@hotmail.com) and any inquiries can also be directed to this address.
I've tried to anticipate demand, and have produced limited quantities of each logo, but more of what I anticipate to be more popular, i.e., Pearl, Star, Hoshino, etc. If I run out of any particular logo, I will plan to do another run as long as sales/demand can justify my expense, so your patience will be appreciated in this regard. I'm still accepting suggestions, and reference submissions, and special orders can be discussed. Thanks again to everyone for all your help and encouragement, and hope you'll be happy with your new logos...
*Logos are black, adhesive, die-cut vinyl, (no clear background) with backing sheet, and transfer tape on positive side to facilitate easy, and accurate positioning. Current logo selection, sizes, and prices are depicted on attached pics. I will also prepare a Photobucket page with price, selection pictures as well as post in the 'For Sale' section.
