[DeTomaso] Bag tag order--second call

[MikeLDrew at aol.com]

Hi guys,

On 23 October I put forth an e-mail about De Tomaso (and other marque) bag 
tags.   The deadline for ordering is 20 November.   Response has been good, 
but not nearly as large as the three previous times I had these tags made 
(perhaps the market is saturated?)

In any case, here is the original e-mail I sent.   If you are interested 
and haven't already let me know, please do so now!

Hi guys,

Those of you who have been around for awhile may remember that quite a few
years ago (2004-2005), I orchestrated a group buy of custom luggage tags,
featuring the De Tomaso logo.   Bag tags are a beautiful thing, when you're
standing in the airport waiting for your black bag to come down the
carousel,
only to see a sea of similar black bags.   Too, having the De Tomaso logo 
on

your bag immediately identifies you as a person of exquisite taste to the
automotive cognescenti, and can serve as a great conversation starter.

I put forth the idea, quite a few people jumped on it, and then after the
order was complete, more people wanted some, so I placed a second order, 
and

then a third.   I think I wound up ordering something like 500 tags when 
all

was said and done.

These tags are custom-made, one at a time, by hand, by Royal Bag just
outside of Osan Air Base, South Korea.   Unfortunately my local contact 
left

Korea in 2005 and I haven't been able to get any more tags made since then.

Good news!   An old friend of mine who now flies the U-2 spy plane, is
going to be going to Osan for two months starting next week, and he's 
agreed
to
serve as my bag tag agent out there.   So it's time to place your orders
once again!

Most people get bag tags with their names on them; they can either be had
with cursive writing, or BLOCK CAPITAL lettering.   Although the primary
focus is De Tomaso, I also have numerous other logos available:   Ferrari,
Lamborghini, Porsche, Shelby, Corvette, MG, Thunderbird and Panoz.   If you
desired some other marque, that could be arranged as well (it would be
helpful if you provided a high-res JPG image of the desired logo).

The cost of these tags seems to be about five bucks apiece.   I will
happily front the production costs, and when the tags arrive, I'll simply
ask that you pay me via PayPal and give your mailing address, and then I'll
mail
yours off to you.   My ambition is to get them into everyone's hands in 
time

for Christmas.

What I need to know is:

Name (as it appears on the tag)
Tag color
Lettering color
Lettering style (either cursive or BLOCK CAPITALS) Quantity

You can get virtually any colors you like, both for the tags and for the
script.   As technique, I like the idea of getting the tag color to match
the car, and the lettering to match the trim, i.e. red car with chrome trim 
gets
a red tag with silver lettering.   But really, the sky is the limit.

If you have an off-the-wall color, include a sample so they can match it.

Please e-mail me privately, and in the subject line, include your name, 
i.e.
"Joe Bagadonutz Bag Tag Order" so I can keep track of it easily.

I will create an Excel spreadsheet, and place the order on the 20th of 
November.   So put your thinking caps on, get your Christmas list out, and let 
me know what your desires are!

Cheers!

Mike
