A simple copy of an old logo will be much cheaper. Printing charges will be your responsibility. You will receive computer file formats of this logo, from which you can use to send to printers. Additional hourly charges will apply for converting logo to different sizes and formats. $100 max payment is possible, but not very realistic. You are real-world looking at $250-500. ----- Original Message ----- From: "David Still"
