Wow.
Well, I wish you well in this. I can't really bring myself to spend
that much for them, but I bet some could.
Now stickers, I think I could go for those. Wonder what it would
take to have custom sticker sheets produced? Having to cut stickers
to size would be too much trouble on a large scale - do you think
someone could find a place that would be able to take measurements
and produce 8 1/2 x 11 sheets of sticker paper with torso-sized
stickers/labels in them? That would be really cool!
