Philco decals
#10

Okay, here are the results I promised...

First, let's take a look at an original Philco decal from a Model 41-221CI, typical of 1937 and newer PHILCO decals. Following that, the largest size of the PHILCO decal on the AES sheet, and finally, a Rock-Sea reproduction.

Compare the above carefully. See what I mean? The AES decal (middle) is identical to the original above it. The Rock-Sea repro is different; not only in font style but in height.

Now let's compare an original 1932-36 Philco decal from a 16B tombstone to the only currently available repro, from Rock-Sea:

The Rock-Sea repro is very close to the original, but not quite identical. Notice how the P and H are different, the L is shorter, and the C is not rotated back slightly as on the original.

I'll be sending this info to Mike at Rock-Sea also...
