Clarence Ferguson had a fair number of these decals back in 1965.  I bought 
one for the outrageous price of $25.  Little did I know that with inflation it 
would now be worth $100,000 or I would have bought two, one for keeps and one 
for speculation!
 
BTW - these were stored flat and looked a lot better that the eBay example.  
My good friend Art Wilmoth actually applied his to his front window in his 
industrial sewing machine repair shop on Valencia Street in San Francisco.  Now 
if you are thinking of dropping by with a glass cutter, the shop was sold when 
he passed on and the new owners took out the window decorations.  Wow, 
$100,000 gone with the wind!
 
Regards to all,

Al,

You should take a photo with today's paper in the background and email it to
him.
