Hi all,
I have just picked up myself a Malvern Star M 1956 2 star frame and am finding it hard to get any pics of decals for my restoration- any advice welcome!

Thanks Vern- that was the set of decals i got from cylcomondo........ I was hoping that Malvern Star may have commemorated the 56 olympics with something a bit special on the 2 stars. anyway I decided to powder-coat the frame in classic cream, hand enamel the 2 stars in red and white and nickel plate all the other bits and bobs myself ( an economical solution to paying someone to chrome them). she will be a wall hanger this frame. BTW- Anyone know much about 1930's Tom Wallace Special's????? brother got one from the same bloke i got my 2 star from.... all we know is the shop still exists.
