Designed by Rob Larkam, the Pro Pallet holds your pallet materials along with 4 holes cut to hold your 2 oz. paint cups. The Pro Pallet also has rubber "feet" on the bottom to prevent slippage and protect the surface when it is set down. Made of lightweight PVC for easy holding, it works as hard as you do! Comes with a sleeve of HDPE plastic cups. Refill cups are also available. Great for pinstripers and sign artist alike! Extra cups are available. to view this go to http://www.lazerlines.com/html/supplies.html Thanks to Rob Larkham

5.) Alphabets of Atkinson Volume #1 by The Fontry!
One dozen of the finest examples of Art Nouveau lettering anywhere! The Alphabets of Atkinson, Volume One, represents the best-of-the-best by sign-industry legend Frank H. Atkinson. His book, Sign Painting was published almost 100 years ago and has become the artistic standard for generations of signpainters and computer-aided signmakers. The dozen Alphabets of Atkinson cover the gamut of historical styles, from ornate tuscans to flowing scripts, all of which expertly complement a secondary range of Atkinson's less-elaborate workhorse styles that are still classics in their own right. There's something here for every signmaker, from the ordinary to the extraordinary. All 12 alphabets have complete character ranges and are published on CD. Thanks to Mike Atkins at The Fontry for supplying this prize. Check out his entire font collection at

Sorry it has taken this long to reply. The shock of actually winning just wore off early this morning.
Having been a resident since the inception of the program, I have never, until this week, won a prize in the Resident Draw.
Thanks Frank Manning of One-Shot! Frank is such an awesome supporter of Letterheads. Woo hoo! Six more colors to add to my stockpile of paints! With so many colors, it will be hard to choose....
Thanks Barb and Steve! You guys rock!
Have a great one!
