Unfortunately, in cleaning my Triumph, I accidentally wiped out the lettering on the dealer tag. I am hoping to get a good, high resolution scan of an original Edisonia Co. tag, that I can send to Gregg Cline to make a transfer.
The text is as follows:
THE EDISONIA CO.
COR. NEW & HALSEY ST.
A.O. PETIT, MGR. NEWARK, N.J.
If anyone here has a machine with such a tag, please send me a scan.
Thank you,
Bill

Bump
Even a photo of decent quality would work, according to Greg. Anyone?

This might work...

I love the shadowed font on the tag! It's very evocative of the era, and should look great when you make the re-print.

It's cool, I listed it. Do you just need a good photo of it?
