If you can get a completed logo to John Neal - or have him finalize one,
I've got an Alps printer and would be happy to print up a few pages for you.

The Alps has a white ribbon, we used it to do a white 'backing' (on clear
decal paper) for these GMLTC logos:

I have a few sheets at home, we could work out some sort of re-payment for them.

I have these sheets as well, but I haven't had a chance to try them through
the Alps yet. I'm not sure if it can handle the extra thickness.

The only way to find out is to try it! I printed out some GMLTC logos that
were that size, they still looked pretty good.
