[Boatanchors] LETTERING ON WRINKLE PAINT

[David Knepper]

Bill, over some years these transfers lose their properties - in simple 
truth they no longer slide off the sheet.

If you can find fresh ones (new), from a supplier, they will do what you 
want them to do.

I have a drawer full of them that need to be pitched.
