Wrong font for the Sox Pete . I stink at photography or you might be able to read what's under the R.

Awesome Ray!

That really looks good Bro! I think you may have found your stay at home job.

No true Roscoehead should be without a Roscoe wallet!

Wow, nice job, Ray!

Thanks Joe! I've still got a LONG way to go but I thought this would get a few chuckles.

Well Bob It's half there. The logos, both Roscoe and the F clef ARE raised. It just ain't black, cause black is apparently a mofo to dye where it doesn't come off.

That and I went for the look of wood, Every inch was struck with a tool for that effect. I wanted it to look as if Roscoe carved the logos out of a slab. Dunno how well I did, but that's what I was after.

And BTW This is how I roll with my leather tools;



I'm told the handle is cocobolo...

Shoot, you don't need a middle man driving your prices up. Make 10-20 of these in different colors, styles, etc., then set up an eBay store and you'll be off to the races.

Beware of licensing issues, in other words check with Gard/Keith on using their logo for commercial purposes. Somehow, I don't think that will be a big issue, though.

There are over 6,000 Roscoes out there, which I imagine means there are at least 3,000-4,000 unique Roscoe owners. That's a lot of leather!! Get to work!

And think of guys like Jerry, that CDO ain't cheap, and his Roscoe wallet would just *need* to match whichever bass he's gigging with on any given day.

I've........ got........... a......... plan.............

I did the wallet for giggles. I'd sure not use anyones imaging without getting approval beforehand.

But for the sake of legalese; This item was created for personal use. It will not be sold for profit nor marketed in any form or fashion without the expressed written consent of the National Football League or Roscoe Guitars Inc and the sole proprieter theirof Keith B. ( The B stands for Barnaby Jones) Roscoe.



God Bless, Ray

As far as the Roscoe logo, approval granted, in writing right here on the intarweb.

HEY! Uhh, wait...you're right. Never mind.

Nice, Ray! This...in a very positive way...reminds me of a wallet my wife bought for me back in the mid 90's. After a very, very influential movie came out and I saw it, oh, 10 or 30 times (errr...30 or 10, for Gard).

Which wallet is yours?

It's the one that says "Bad Emmer Effer" on it.
