I drew up the artwork and brought it to the San Diego County fair. There's a vendor here that will make them while you wait. Saw him here last week, and came back to the fair today with my artwork.
Working from my phone herere, so excuse the crappy pix & typos. He charges $35 for the first one and $25 for each add'l. I have his card and will post the contact info. when i get home. I gave hi m my artwork, so he has it on file. You guys are more than welcome to use it. He has many colors of hats and thread, so you can personalize for your cars. |

I want something like the left one! Shipping to Sweden will probably cost as much as the hat itself but I'll be pretty....ier....ish. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I'm with Mr Cairo - 914-6 that is !
2 for me - what other colour combinations do we have ? I will be at RR5 in September if that helps with the shipping. PM if appropriate. Cheers, Dennis (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Mike,
Nice Work & nice design!!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) Call me Monday - there may be a better price alternative for a GB, cuz I think you're paying SD County Fair prices for them! There's a shop in Fullerton which I've used that had something like a $45 set-up fee to digitize your artwork & then $7 per hat to embroider IIRC + cost of hat (near wholesale if enough bought). I'll find his info over the weekend for you. .... email me if you don't have my cell #. I'll get 1 or 2 & have him add my "USC in Cherokee Syllabary" he has on file to them too! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) PS - is "914S" a possibility!? Happy 4th & Thanx to those who have served! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/flag.gif) Tom /////// |

I'm sure I could get them made cheaper somewhere if I looked around online. But I was able to check out these hats in person and choose the style I like. They are very high quality hats, and have an adjustment buckle in the back. Life's too short for cheapo hats.
Since I bought two, he knocked down the price a bit. He has lots of other style hats, in many colors. Dozens of colors of thread. The blue hat above has silver thread for the car, to match my '74, and the tan hat has blue thread to match my '73. I brought photos of the cars and he selected thread colors that were a very close match. Here's the contact info.: Embroidery Unlimited 1185 N. Blue Gum St., Anaheim, CA 92806 www.EmbroideryUnlimitedUSA.com Email: sales@embroideryunlimitedusa.com Contact: Juan DeRueda, Ph: 714-402-4830 Just send him an email, and maybe attach my photo from above, and he will hook you up with the hat of your choice! |

I understand perfectly Mike! The shop I used was great quality too, & I'd actually checked with your shop for my embroidery job, but IIRC they were backlogged at the time. The one I used was e4hats at the link below - also good people to work with. http://www.e4hats.com/fullerton-store I'll go see your Anaheim guy to get 1 or 2 made when I get the chance! Happy 4th!

The company owner was very helpful and did a great job, so I always like to give my business to companies like that.

Given the option, I would always try to do business with small business owners. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)
If you guys get this sorted out so the lazy guys (me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) ) can just place the order, I would be in for probably 3 hats - 1 for me others would be gifts. Christmas (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) is just around the corner and these would make great stocking stuffers. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wreath.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/wreath.gif) Mike has it all set up, just call or email his guy in Anaheim CA at his post above. I just followed-up with the small business owner with whom I'd worked on some other hat embroidery project as a fyi for members on future stuff. So there are 2 sources close to each other which do this type of work, & both do great work for reasonable prices. Sorry for the confusion. Place your orders for this design at Mike's post #14 - that's it done & dunn! happy 4th (IMG:style_emoticons/default/flag.gif) Tom /////// |

Guess I should have clarified:
"Just had these made up a few minutes ago. FOR ME!" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Check out the info.. above and get your orders in. I'll be back at the fair tomorrow and will give the guy a heads up to look for orders from you guys. |
