To protect the rarity of Adam's collection he should leave his decals alone and not reproduce them. If you want something he has or anyone else for that matter make a deal with them and purchase it. Reproducing only hurts the market especially a niche market like original memorabilia.
Creating reproductions would be in self interest which Adam clearly does not have by voicing sentiments in keeping the collection as original as possible.

I agree. There are tons of vintage look alike decals available right. It seems to me what happens is someone repops a huge lot of these things and floods the market with them causing them to become just another sticker available at every Goodguys show or Ebay store or swapmeet. I have drawers full of decals I have bought over the last few years and at one point a lot of them were fairly unique but now are plastered all over the place. Nothing looks worse at a car show than a 60's muscle car with a repop AHRA decal or participant decal and Dakota digital gauges and late model car wheels all sitting on top of a S-10 frame. The 50 model merc I saw last week with Parking permit decals from Auburn University in the 60's was the real deal......
