Hi from Knottingley
Hi guys.
Just getting back in the game after about 10 years out. I use to work with my old man back in the late 90s Making graphics for car and van lettering. I was there right at the height of the "fido dido" , zebra striped escort and the un-readable number plate phase that the newly dubbed boy racers wanted. We did all that sort of thing, along with van and shop lettering for small business’s, Amongst others. We had to close down to to raising overhead prices and the stiff competition that kept popping up.Now we are back, starting again from almost scratch. Will absolute minimum overheads, and experience on our side.
So this is me saying hi.

Hello Andy.
Glad to hear you are getting back into it in a serious way.
With so many people out there doing stuff for beer money it can be hard to compete. But if you stay firm with your prices and offer a quality service and product that is a big step in the right direction.
Love….Jill

😳I do believe that it was the "bedroom boys" starting up, offering cheap, usually poor quality graphics for beer money that contributed to the company closing last time round. The aim this time round is for us to offer high quality products and services (as before). But be a little more savvy of our competition and our finances.
And zebra stripes on a station wagon???? :rofl:

Hey it was only on the back.
One side had a tiger with stripes blowing back, the other side a Native American head with feathers blowing back.
I thought I was the shizzit!
Flames on the hood in salmon pink too.
My kids never wanted to get in the car.
I have no pix of it, thank goodness.
