Another interesting find. Canadian Museum of Science and Industry has a very interesting collection of decalcomania (decalomania). Well illustrated and well written history of the technique.

sweet...don't appologize, keep searching!
Well you just do that cousin...find that stuff and post it RIGHT here!
Nice find, I look forward to reviewing it all! Rick had done quite a bit of research on the subject and had recreated some of it for his restorations.

Don't forget to look on the green page too.
Rick was explaining how to do transfers at a Conclave one year, but didn't make time to take notes.
Fortunately Lee Littlewood did, which is posted here: http://www.theletterheads.com/glawson/decalomaniac.html
It describes the process from Rick's instructions, which Lee used to make in his shop.
