They've been around a long time. Not certain if they've changed hands. Decals can be expensive, especially if you need custom made decals. However they really are important to make a vintage bike look correct and beautiful.

I've had excellent work done by my local sign shop - the kind that does commercial stickers/decals for commercial vehicles, customizations, etc. they looked just like original and have proven to be as durable as OEM stickers. They had a wide variety of backing materials, colors, clear, thicknesses, etc. I had mine based on pieces of old decals I had, some measurements, some web images and a small bit of give and take getting the font and colors right But it wasn't expensive at all.

Regarding Velocals…they have a good stock of decals from many well-known brands. But when I tried to get them to create decals for a lesser-known bike that they had none of…they really didn’t want to consider it. My guess is they’d be the same for custom decals. If you’re looking to replace decals from a manufacturer…they’re OK. But if it’s something custom you want they’re probably not.
