Hi gang, I had a stroke back in August....am actually doing pretty well, but will be unable to keep on with my sign shop. I will sure miss the work and my great customers! I'm 75, had intended to work another 5 years, even my limited hours but can not.
My shop is for sale along with the customer base and all equipment. Located in Whitehall PA ( near Allentown ) Will sell the whole deal for 18,000 or just the customer list.
If interested please call me at home 610-421-8087 and I could send you hand written ( crudely ) list of all stuff and discuss it.

Thanks for all the great input and friendship over the years!

God be with you, Tom, and speed your recovery.

I too, had a stroke, a couple years ago; but am still able to work (as much as I want ).

Do the therapy, exercise, and keep active. That's what helped me tremendously.

Good luck with the sale of your shop, and I'm hoping maybe someone with some passion for this great craft will take it over, and make it fly again.
