Does anyone have a source for a Marvel carburetor decal?

If anyone has a digital version that can be sent that would be great.

Thanks

Ron

Hi Ron,
There's a marvel Carburetor on Ebay that shows a decal on it.
I'm not sure if its what you need but maybe take a photo it and make your own decal.
Just I thought, hope it helps.

Thanks for your help.

My Model A Marvel had the remains of the following decal on the front of the carb.

I was able to find one on Ebay, but I lack the skill to clean it up or recreate it.
Hopefully someone has one that we can all share.

Thanks,
Ron,

I find it interesting that they misspelled carburetor on your decal.

There was a thread the other day that had a picture of a Marvel with a decal on it.

My Marvel has an "Allstate" decal on it

Yes, they were sold by Sears, Monkey Wards, among other places.

I made my own decal, not 100% correctbut works for me.

Fantastic work Y-blockhead. Can you share your image?

Don't know if this might help any of you out, but I did a quick "clean up" of the image that Technite73 (Ron) posted. Here's how it turned out. Not perfect, but better than it was. Not sure what to do with it now? What kind of material should it be printed on? I would think it needs to be gasoline proof?

Fantastic thank you!
I can make a nice decal from this.

Thanks again.

FYI I found it interesting that the name "Holley" was mispelled without the "e" on the Ford Blueprint!!!

Thanks to The Geezer for his work recreating a host of Marvel decals.

Here is my restored Marvel Carburetor.
