Post by: Maurice Meyer on October 30, 2006, 06:17 PM: Yeah, funny where things end up huh? I've got some nice mementos from the UK. A few Rad City and BMX Action Bike stickers, some magazines, Anarchic Adjustment stickers, girls' phone numbers... Ha.

So I scanned the Vincent sticker set. If anyone wants it just send me an e-mail.
