Coin Op radio decals
#6

Kirk;
  There is some outfit that will reproduce water slide decals for you, Bob Andersen and Phil Nelson used them to reproduce sets of decals for the controls of early Admiral televisions. Apparently once they are set up they can run off new batches as needed at lower cost. You can go that route or have a go at using some water slide transfer paper like Lasertran. As you can see from teh cracking and flaking the decal in the first photo is some sort of paint based material rather then being on paper, sort of like the faux wood grain they used on radio cabinets and car dashboards, although paper may work. What is interesting is that it looks like something is underneath that first decal, perhaps another Tradio logo? It also looks like someone may have repainted the cabinet as there is grey paint under that beige paint. Whatever you do don't try to print these up on plastic stickers, even though print shops push them they look fake and will peel off over time from the glue letting go. 
Regards
Arran
