I have been making decals for many years for the Vintage VW Restor-Version projects I have created.
Taking it one step further, it was easy to make the artwork larger to create some metal signs as well.
Most of the signs made are used for display in my “Man Cave” hobby room.
Here is the photo of the 1938 VW Cornerstone Ceremony pin that is well known.
So I took the idea and created my color version of that pin and then took the artwork to make this metal sign.
Checkout this link to see some of the other metal signs I have created over the years.

OK, the KdF Wagen was featured at the INTERNATIONALE AUTOMOBIL UND MOTORRAD AUSSTELLUNG-BERLIN 1939.
There was a special Bakelite KdF Wagen pin given out to commemorate the event.
I took a photo of the KdF Wagen pin and created a graphic of it and then used the graphic to create a special sign.
