G.Loomis decal
Posted by: Larry Grimm (---.proxy.aol.com)

A friend of mine gave me an older G. Loomis blank to wrap for him , he said he got the blank from Gary Loomis himself . Any way long story short , the decal that came with the blank was un -usable , and became destroyed , what i am looking for is another G. Loomis decal , I notified G. Loomis and told them what I just told you , their reply was they don't have the machine that made the decals anymore , they now silk screen by hand , (they also no longer sell blanks) . I thought maybe one of you out there would have a decal laying around , and maybe I could have it , I'll pay for it . Thank you all , Larry

Larry you may have a problem as the Loomis decals are almost surley have a copy write and it is illegal for a company to print them,
The orginal decals also contained the info regarding the blank size line weight etc so you need this info if looking for someone who happens to have an old Loomi decal laying around because it should match the blank

Larry,
I have a good many of the old decals with the blank number on them which could be cut off . A lot of them are from the GL3's and GL2's matte finish. Most folks didn't want decals on a custom rod back then, so I just put them in a drawer in my rod room. I would be glad to mail you a few if you think they will work for you.

All it takes is a little bit of emailing to GLoomis and then to Decal Connection and they will make them for you. You don't have to go cut hardwood or anything mind blowing to get it done and done right.
