OK, "Retro 80" is BACK 80 years to 1928 or earlier ... when Si was just a twinkle in his parents eyes
I'm thinking Old signs, old adverts, old fonts, old scrolls.
If you can add in an "8" extra marks!
Vicki, my daughter on a traveling sign odossey around Australia, has be doing some "old' panels to flog off at some of the local Sunday Markets.
And selling heaps!
She get marks for the "8" Ball, and the Murray Steamer one prompted the company to employ her to "update" all their signage in that little corner of the Murray river in the same style.
I've been playing with paint and fonts. This one was done for the local Pioneer Museum ... love job ... but fun.
They are the side panels for a Model T Ford pickup. Coal-fired pie warmer mounted on the tray!
Font started out as Times Roman. Then I started to play with it. Thanks Mickey for the ideas from the panel you gave me in Canada.
OK .. seeds are sown in Spring! Yer got the summer to germinate.
SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT!!!
This time for Panel Swap #8 I am going to put all entries submitted into a popular vote on the BullBoard!
I will send the winner a couple of the Hadyn Brushes I love dearly.
I had my mom check out the past panel swap projects and we were discussing my panel ideas.
She is a fine artist vs being a sign artist and was hoping to get in on the swap. Is that O.K? Would it be one panel for each of us or can we each present (2) max?
Thanks!

IN your case, Empy, as long as you flew over and hand delivered it, you could choose either of those two times!!!

Yes Alicia. Do the sign, take a pic and sent it to me before 08/08/08.
I will put all the entries in a hat and draw one one swaps. Then e-mail everybody with details of who they are swapping with. It's then up to you to mail the panel.

Sounds like a lot of fun, Jon. I'm definately up for it. Nic's going to be stoked - right up his alley. Is there a preferred size? How do we choose the swapees? BTW Thanks for showcasing my little signs. I just love your PIEOLOGIST signs - that sounds like an authentic science.....
