Default Re: Do you like 'em Big or Small??

You will likely get some varying opinions on this Darrell. There isn't any right or wrong approach really. All a matter of personal taste I think.

When I got back in the hobby in 1991 I did up a 64 Goat. I had a very large sign for that one and, if I recall, put a 10,000 word essay on it. Turned out to be "information overload" as most people would not take the time to read it all.

I personally prefer the small ones with a few general comments. I keep a folder with me as well in case somebody is interested in a lot of the other information relative to the car. In that folder I keep codes, production numbers, magazine articles for the car, history, etc. If I had some original documentation I would keep copies of it in the folder as well.

Attached is a picture of my sign. I did the design layout myself and then had it professionally done. Size is 18" wide by 24" tall. If I had to do it again I would likely leave off the picture of the car as it probably isn't necessary due to the sign being displayed with the car.

I guess my approach is to use the "KISS" theory. Just my two cents worth.
