Weedwoman, I haven't seen that decal. Is this the 1902 machine? A wood pitman usually means it is a pre 1900 machine. The machine is very pretty and looks like it is in great shape except for the decals silvering, which is common.

I can't find a pic of that decal anywhere but it is a 27 serial #186012. Maybe the head was not the original for that cabinet. I couldn't get any history of the machine at all.

Has anybody made slide off decals for their machines? I'd like to make some for Elvira (a little on the dark side) just for fun.
Just wondering if anyone had given that a try.
