  7. The elusive 24" x 30" realty sign frame

    The customer is selling their house themselves and hired a designer to design a sign who doesn't know the standards for the industry and then you are expected to solve their problem. If the file is editable I'd suggest reworking it to fit or just print as is and let them buy the frame.

They usually lat a full season in a college rink. But for the graphics in front of the benches (where they get beat to hell...

    Garston & Hyatts...and whenever I run across someone selling used ones. Great thing about edge foils, they don't go bad. I've bought a boxes of partials from people whose edge died or they got out of the business for pennies on the dollar.
