Side Curtain ID tags for sale

[trimacar]

I've done a couple of early car side curtain sets, and found the originals had tags to identify the curtains.  This may seem simplistic, the way I describe it is next time you're in a rainstorm and asking your partner to hand you the "left rear" side curtain, you'd be happy you had these on! First picture shows an original style tag, second picture shows new, reproduced, tags.

 

These measure 2-1/4 inch by 9/16 inch, and can be either ironed on (has heat glue on reverse) or sewn on as the originals.

 

$20 a set of six, postpaid anywhere in Continental US.  Contact me at david.coco@comcast.net if interested.  Thanks!

Thank you!  These were fairly common on original curtain for some makes, but never got replaced when new curtains were made over the years.  I'd never seen them reproduced, so did so for a set of early curtains I was replicating, and made extra.....

Hello David,  You picture above shows them working on a "one man" top set.  I am assuming that they would work just as well on a "two man" top assembly?

Hi- yes, they were made for any side curtains that had three curtains on each side, the picture is just a generic illustration.

 

Some tops had four curtains on each side, usually the additional curtain was a rectangular panel that filled in length for a large car.  These could be used on such curtains but that insert panel would be unlabeled.

 

thanks dc

Having been on tour  last summer in our Lincoln Touring and getting caught in the rain, I can tell you David is right,

makes the job so much easier and quicker.
