Need Schwinn decals
 
https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...3cd7e4568f.jpg

Was fortunate enough to snag a pair of Sports Tourers from original owners. Craigslist find. Virtual time capsules. Downtube decals were removed when mounting water bottles though. (Pletscher carriers, generator lights, mirrors..)

Last time I needed to "refresh" a Schwinn, old school water transfer decals were readily available on fleaBay.. All sold out now? Not finding them anywhere.

Where would you look.. who would you contact for vintage Schwinn decals?

AND.. as pleased as I was to find a matching pair of my favorite Schwinns, the OTHER treasures in this elderly couple's garage just knocked me out. Ya just never know!

Believe she told me it was a 21' 1955 Chris Craft Cobra. They had it shipped from the lake Tahoe region. Concours restoration, but now the husband is too infirm to climb in.

It's never been wet since restoration. Sad

Wow, not one but two and both Men's or top tube models. Quite a find. That is a pretty boat too.

Seller has different colors available. I've purchased the Paramount waterslides from him, nice quality.

They have good taste, and so obviously do you sir. Check with Andy or Tim at Yellow Jersey, They are redoing a late 71 Sports Tourer for me, and have a source for the decals. Frame same green as yours, but won’t be when done. Going with the factory decals though.
