Quoted from spandol:You’re lucky. I need at least a decal for my globetrotters, but can’t seem to get one. Would get an apron if they were available.
Best of Pinball makes several Bally apron decals. If this isn’t the one that you are looking for, look at the other options.

Quoted from NYP:Why do IJ when all you have to do is strip it, paint it black and put new decals on it? I would think you would want to do painted ones. Addams Family is an obvious good choice, IJ I just don’t get.
People prefer silk screened metal aprons, but will settle for an apron decal if they have no other choice.
With Pinball Rescue closing down, I've found a few other sites that offer apron decals. I haven't bought any of these decals, so I don't know the quality, and I don't know if any of them are licensed by Planetary Pinball.
Planetary Pinball offers quite a few apron decals and holds the B/W license so they should be good quality. Only 10 so far, but hopefully he'll start making more.

*Pinball Center won't ship to the US. Pinsider Zitt places orders with them monthly and has his items shipped to a mail forwarding address in Europe, who then ship to his address in Texas. You can coordinate with him to have your items shipped with his to his address in Texas and then redeliver to you. Below is his forum where he announces cutoff dates.

Quoted from tomdrum:Bally apron cores- $25+. I was selling restored aprons and shooter gauges at Pinfest for $150. They were repainted, new decals and then shot with automotive clear coat and new cards.
I wasn’t at the show so I couldn’t see them, but the price seems too low. Can you post some pictures?
The apron decals that Marco's and PPS sell may be from Classic Arcades, and we've all heard the complaints about wrong colors and sized wrong overlays from Classic Arcades.
I created this forum to discuss stores where you can buy apron decals:

Quoted from Elicash:Hi all I just discovered this thread. Anyone know where I can get a system 11 apron? For whirlwind.
I suggest posting a wanted ad. I'm sure someone has a decent one in their parts stash. If you are interested in an apron decal to fix up your apron then look here:

Quoted from Grefla:OK. I'm looking for Rocking horse crap I know, but has anyone got a really nice fathom apron I could buy, or a set of the quality Fathom apron decals.
I created this forum with a list of sites that sell apron decals. I believe that PPS and Marcos are buying their decals from Classic Arcades (EBay seller), and some European sites as well. Make sure to look closely at the colors as some people have issues with the Classic Arcades overlays and decal colors.

Quoted from rvdv:anyone smarter then me care to make these [quoted image]
If you can print an apron decal with “s, inc.” you’ll be the smartest person to ever print classic Stern apron decals.
Quoted from 20eyes:I made a scan of a similar repro decal I bought a few years ago. I'm not good with graphics and decals maybe someone here can clean it up and make something of it.

If someone takes on this project, please add the missing text in the manufacturer’s title. The name is Stern Electronics, Inc., not Stern Electronic. That missing text on the Pinball Rescue decals has always bothered a lot of collectors, but they were the only option out there.
Quoted from gdonovan:I can cut you one when I do another batch, be a few weeks though at best.
[quoted image][quoted image]
gdonovan I can tell yours are custom because they don’t have the missing “s Inc.” Like the Aussie versions.
