[Geoff Winnington-Ball (RIP)]

Dunno how I missed this thread... but OK, here we go....

First of all, the MLU artwork as shown was done up by myself in original scale, based upon visuals of the originals. Bruce Parker painted up a full-sized sign a few years back, that presently extant within the Ballard's garage outside Southampton. It's an appropriate venue, given that the sign goes wherever they do!

It CAN be reproduced. All were painted by hand, so there is some leeway in terms of dimensions, fonts, etc - even the one I originally created required some degree of photoshop work to match the fonts with the old pics. The gold-ish frame IS my creation, and I would appreciate it if it were to be preserved.

If you guys REALLY want to run with this - and I love you for it - give me a couple of days to clean up some "original" artwork. And BTW, I have a HI-RES scan of the Canada-Russia-China decal sent to me by Richard Notton... that should work as art.
