Those are pretty cool! I haven't seen those decals before. Is that an original style? If so what models did they come on? Older A7's maybe?
I only remember seeing them on a few A5s in transit at the distributor, though its my understanding they were only on 828C? cabs and maybe not all since I tried repeatedly to order some, but kept being put off until was told they were no longer available.Seen only a few pics of them online over the years, so either rare or had been scraped off/painted over as so many have been repainted, often many times in DJ, etc., apps.

Late 70's hippie revival.Is that an original style? If so what models did they come on? Older A7's maybe?
I doubt they were applied to A7's. More likely 1236 systems used for PA and SR.
Altec used the same font on the cover of the '83 VOT catalog. But, the image is different as the corporate logo shows "Altec Lansing" where the '78 vintage decal says only "Altec"
I can't support it, but it's my understanding that by sometime in the early 80's cabinets did not come with decals applied. Instructions for application were included in the assembly instructions

Do you have any info about the horns on these 604? Seems kinda silly they would use a 7/8" horn
not exactly what you want but these repros are somewhat close.Then maybe someone has a NOS pair of decals sitting on their shelf

He calls them "version 2".
I'm thinking "version BS", or perhaps he means the second version in that font.
Those are cut from the graphic on the '83 catalog cover.
I totally redact that statement like a testifying member of any 3 letter agency.I doubt they were applied to A7's. More likely 1236 systems used for PA and SR.
'78 catalog shows the A7X monitor with that decal.

If I could get my 828 cabs looking good enough I would buy a set of those VOTT decals
