Would anyone know what font Airstream used on the 1999 cab over window decal?

If you find out im in need of one as soon as I replace the glass. Its on the list but keeps getting bumped back due to other issues. It will need attention before paint.

If you just looking to replace the decal, Airstream probably has it.

I did call around to Airstream in Ohio, as well as various dealers. No one seemed to have it. So I dusted off my Photoshop skills and came up with this:
Tiny, compressed version for posting. The actual size is much, much bigger and is a 300dpi TIF file with alpha channel -- ready for the vinyl shop!

How did I do?

p.s. The font was ITC Bookman Demi Bold with custom sizing and skewing.

Looks great!

I wonder if we can cut that with the Cricut. (Well, we probably can, as long as Airstream doesn't find out!)
