Your likely right on the type of printer, it was quite a while back when the discussion of how to make them occured.

If I recall, the chorehorses were made by the Johnson Outboard marine corp.

The bulletin refers to 4 standard sizes of the decal; 6", 3" 1-1/2", and 1". It would be kind of neat to be able to buy a sheet with a selection of each. Then we could start sticking them to everything.

Back in 2000, as my unit was preparing for Bosnia, we had ordered in extra Inglis High Powers to go over with. All showed up heavily packed in grease, and with their decals on the front strap. The young gunners were a bit surprised to learn how old the current issue sidearm in Canada really is.
