Dry Transfers
Posted by grandpopswalt on Sunday, January 2, 2005 7:40 PM
I've visited several department stores as well as office supply stores and a few craft outlets not to mention several hobby shops in the hope of finding WHITE dry transfer letters and numbers. All I can find is BLACK.

Can anyone suggest where I might find what I'm looking for?

I bought mine in a photo supply store. They had all styles and sizes to chose from.
Hope you can find some in your area.

M/S Santa Clause has printed out some letters on "velum" and we are going to attach them to a transfer which came with my tender this trnsfer is green so we will have gold lettering on light coloured velum onto a green transfer an a black tender.
Looks good in a sample we did.

Walt,
It used to be that they were available at any Wilson Stationers supply stores. Now they are pretty much extinct. We have a chain of photo shops here called Black's Photography. Gonna' check them out to see if they sell them. Later eh...Brian.
