Champ Private Name Decals

What did Champ Decals do with their inventory? Did someone pick them up?

Mike,

  There was not too much left of the private names that was available at the shutdown.  I have heard that there were some bids for the remaining stock(especially the GN decals), but I bought everything I wanted before the shutdown.

  I spoke with a guy at the Naperville RPM last year and he mentioned that someone was going to make a bid for the ramaining stock/printing plates.  I suspect if that did not go through, that garage basement was cleaned out(at least if should have been above the flood area).
