Back in the summer of 1982 I was asked to help with a Letterhead event to be held in Moore, Okla. This was my first exposure to this movement so I wasn't all that excited about going. After all I didn't know many sign fellows and those I did come across weren't exactly the most savory. Any way it didn't take long before I caught the fever. There some of the nations best artists attending and they were all ready to assist anyone to learn the tricks of the trade.
Being charged up, two weeks later I entered the trade with my first dimensional sign. At that time I didn't have any equipment to speak of. I had to borrow an overhead projector and a few wood clamps. Although the price of lettering brushes were all that expensive, I had to scrape up the money for a half dozen quill.
I drove by the Paxton office in OKC but they had long gone out of business. Sure wish I had that old sign in my office.
