Deep Purple window decals?


I posted this about a year or two back, but never got much response to my question.

Has there ever been one of those clear vinyl pull off/put on window stickers made with either the DP Logo from the 80's, or the words "Deep Purple" in any era's font?

I would ideally like the letters to have the same font that was used on the Shades of Deep Purple album, but hey....I'm not that picky. At this point any lettering scheme would suffice.

Is there such a thing, or will I have to go down to the vinyl/plastic shop, cut my own, and write the words "Deep Purple" with a felt tip pen, and slap my half-ass done job on the rear window of my car myself? (Jeez, I hope not....that would look so tacky). I'd ideally prefer to get one that is professionally done, and better yet, a licensed product where I know the proceeds will go to the band.

I guess my inspiration is the dozens of Grateful Dead window stickers I've seen on the backs of VW Buses for years. Now I see decals for GreenDay, and many others for more modern bands whose names I don't remember. This is an idea whose time has come for Purple as well.

You should ask that guy who collects all the records and stuff he can get his hands on, they don't want him on the forum because he cannot keep a lid on it with the the enticing animals that swarm on him whenever he says something about anything, and he maybe seem self centered, but I imagine he is just generous and willing to share his personal library of knowledge, without a care in the world about losing any sleep from the insults that plague him.
It's his own fault, and he should not let those types get to him, he should have more self respect, and ignore them, as I tried to tell him that.
I should have joined this forum while he was still allowed on here, he will not reply to my personal messages, I was hard on him for getting caught up in it all, maybe he think i'm an ass or something.

I would like a plastic window decal of the Purp's myself, that would be cool.

I'd love such a decal myself.

Could be, either that or the inevidible lure of attempting a newbie to scram from these boards.
Try your tricks on someone else please.
One; you would have to be the driving type.
Two; you would have to represent a band that you obviously have bitter feelings toward, and why would you want to do that?
Oh yeah, see the first sentance.

four; when you post some, I will. emoticon
But really, he shows a very obvious pattern to stalk me, the last reply to him was deleted, so he tried again here, and thats where it shows.
This is just as much my buisness, as it is yours, okay?

Five: Don't be so paranoid.

There's nothing indicating he stalks you.

So I take it you're not the one who deleted my post that would indicate so, but is no longer up to see the pattern from?
Most likely at his spoiled request?
Man you guys aid each other back and forth, depending on your moods or something, I don't know.
I've seen him rip you a new one in public, and you just lick it up, why the special treatment from a long time poster, versus a long time reader?
I call them as I see them, and I don't like what I see, so if he stays out of my way, I'll have nothing to say about him, you don't see me replying to him, before he replies to me, now do you?
(concentrate on that, if he can put you down and get away with it, then thats the least you can do for a newly registered patron)

Yes, it was me who deleted your post. And for a good reason, as you jumped at him for no apparent reason.
And no, he didn't ask for it.
There's no special treatment here, and if you think so you don't see the whole picture.

Re: Deep Purple window decals?


It's not nearly as serious as you take it, but if you insist, I will disagree with you.
You would have been better off editing my post, and leaving in the part where I told him to stay clear of replying to me.
(every right to say so, or what?)
Since you didn't do that, how can you call fairness of any kind here?
I will not be hounded, or even remotely followed around by that man, nor will I fall for his banana in the tail pipe antics.
You and I both know what he is all about, but I see your attempt to remain as nuetral as possible, a worthy effort, but don't jump so quiclky on me over it, as I am years behind him, in expressing myself here, but have been killing my eyes reading his maliciously sad remarks for years, and have my reasons to request that he not player hate me, like he does anyone who likes ANYTHING here.

No disrespect to you, just keeping it real.
