I am just looking for a set of stickers for my speakers.... I have had these for probably 10 years or so. I bought them from a buddy who painted and restored them, but did not put labels on them.... I would like to finish them out and do it right. Do you think the decals from that link offering the matte finish would like like the originals? Also, I am sure I can find it by searching, but anyone have a measurement on an exact placement on the speakers for the stickers?

I did, he said:
"The originals used from 1945 thru the late 60's were water transfer but Altec switched to peel & stick in 1968. These are high quality exact reproductions of the peel & stick version. They are also the same size as the original water trasfer decals."
I am going to go ahead and buy from him, but I just want to make sure these are the correct stickers for my speakers before I pay $40 for them.
You have me concerned when you mention a white border.
THANKS!

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Worked with B & R Sound here in Columbus Spring of 1971...
Brand new from the box A-7's used water transfer...I put them on myself.
100% sure, date April or May.
Info may be semi-correct, but at least wrong on date.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I would buy a pack of paper...10 sheets?
Take the pack to a print shop...typically $1 per cut.
One cut from each dimension gets the proper size...then run thru the bypass feeder one at a time... two cuts...
Alternative print the info then 4 cuts to trim to size. I prefer the other method..
Kinko's is often cooperative, may just take the paper and bfish's scan in on disk and have them do the whole thing..should be maybe a buck a copy plus $ to trim...might as well print the whole pack, you may screw up one, and when your friends see your new decals they may want a set...
Too bad you ain't in cowtown Ohio, I'd cut them for you. OTOH they could be mailed back and forth media mail if you get stuck.
