Wanted: OK Used Bicycle Tags



I love everything about these hang tags - the clipped top corners, the red string, the reinforced hole, the Union printing label, the serial number in the upper left, the grease pencil, the color choices and the slightly imperfect silkscreen printing.

Anybody know where I can buy a stack? Alternatively, is there a vendor that could recreate them?

Marked "Copyright 1957 Gail C. Watson"
On Reverse "Eastman Label, San Jose, CA"

Googling reveals Eastman did some other cool labels: Link

Mister Jalopy (Coco's Proprietor) on Discovery Channel Canada



Canadian readers, take note: I will be on Discovery Channel Canada's Daily Planet tomorrow to discuss the Urban Guerrilla Drive-In Movie House, the home brew movie projector I built. Hopefully, some enterprising ne'er-do-well will figure out how to put it on the internet, as the site/channel is not viewable from the rest of world.

Want to see the Urban Guerrilla Drive-In Movie House in person? Come to Maker Faire, the most inspiring weekend of the year.
