Hi Ron, I'm a bit FURTHER down/up the coast.... in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

I can vouch for Mr. Osborne, he is a Real Signwriter,he arranged a purchase of Handover Brushes with me in '03, and caught up with him In Wales at David Kynstons's Meet in '07... I so much envy/admire you UK signwriters/Pinstripers... hope to meet you in the Future!!

Hi Ron,
VERY NICE work! Boy it's nice to see the hand lettering and I love the clean window gilding. Thanks for sharing the photos.
(And thanks, Mike, for adding them to the top for Ron.)
