How to Make Decalcomania
By Wallace Venable

Harold Draper said, "Looking for information to reproduce the gold
toned decorative organette tranfers or decals.  I have a lot of artwork
I can put to use and would greatly appreciate any help in this area."

I have made decals with laser computers with the paper sold by
Micro-Mark (and others) on the Internet.  Micro-Mark isn't the cheapest
source for large quantities, but their site is informative, and they
stock many other items with potential organ-building uses.

They sell both clear and white background paper for both laser and
inkjet printers.  Doing "gold toned" decorations will be challenging,
however, because few computer printers have "gold" ink.
