Sorry if this is a repeat, I posted yesterday and I haven't seen it
turn up.

Have any of you guys designed some decals for those metal ball lanes?
They look awfully plain to me. Anyone got any ideas for what would
look there?

I was thinking perhaps a phrase from the game written from left to
right across the two of them.

Any of you repro guys willing to give me a couple free sets in
exchange for artwork? :)

Hmm they just look like nice backlit buffed and burnished stainless steel to
me, what's wrong with that? Even if you put a cheap sticker on top of them it
will not be very well lit or colorful compared to all the lit stuff and the
lit-up playfield surface. Maybe somebody should make some art to put on top of
drab plain flipper tops too, every game has those...just kiddin'

Painting the flipper bats was actually next on my list.

Thanks for your input,

Suggestions for decal lettering:
Flippers - "Flipper"
the rail - "Here comes the ball"

Some Zaccaria games came with red and white striped flipper stickers. I'm
debating whether I like them better plain, though.
