A customer came in with this broken sign the other day and wanted me to reproduce it. It's obviously a mass produced screenprinted plexiglass sign, I've seen this type-o-signage over the years in storefronts. Does anyone know where it came from and contact information?

Thanks in advance.

It looks like a Nagel rip-off (http://www.patricknagel.com/) After Nagel passed away-some 21 years ago, many companies started coming out with prints in his style and they usualy found themselves in hair salons. I doubt you will find a company that still sells the rip-offs but you may find one on E-Bay or a real Nagel reproduction print.

Wow...you're right! It does look like a Nagel knock off. The customer said she bought it at a beauty supply trade show only a couple of years ago but can't remember the supplier's name.

I'm hoping someone is still making them. Any other ideas?

Thanks so much.
