Hey Stuie-baby- As someone who has been asking for freebies with little luck for about 9 months now, my advice would be to first write a polite letter, then follow it up with a phone call, to any suppliers. Ask your local sign supply houses for help in the procedure- N Glantz & Pioneer Supply in Pittsburgh were both helpful for me. If this doesn't work, you could always threaten to feed them haggis, or moon 'em whilst wearing yer kilt! Love Ya- JILL ps the linoleum is polished

hey jill, i talked with sgt. mike meyer of the 21st. Brush Brigade, Mazeppa, Minnesota recently and he is "pumped" for your meet !
bubba meyer is one inspiring sign fellow, ilearned a lot from the "Mazeppa Muster" back in '99
i hosted the 1999 december in dixie meet with a lot of help from my buddy sgt. meyer.
it weren't much, but the people who attended thought it was the best thang since sliced bread.
all had a great time.
your meet sounds like a wonderful affair, i wish i could be there but my schedule doesn't permit.!
back to stewart's post, if ya don't ask then it won't happen. keep on buggin' those suppliers.
(kevin ledbetter of 1-shot sent a lotta paint to my little meet and it was well received. whne you host a letterhead's meet, you soon find out who your "supplier" friends of the craft are.
