Black numbers 53
Posted by cadman on Monday, June 15, 2020 1:58 PM

Hello, I am wanting to do my Tamiya F4F-4 Wildcat with the black numbers" 53 " ( about 1/4" tall) to replicate the aircraft of Capt Foss. Does anyone know where I can get these numbers at? I have checked ebay and some of the model stores I shop with and no luck. Or does anyone have any I could purchase?

Thanks George

Look for Yellow Wings Decals Black USN or USMC Squadron Designators. One of those sheets can see you thru multiple builds.

I have seen number set dry transfer numbers, various font sizes, in gold and black at Hobby Lobby.

Hey George!

 If you cannot find the ones you want at Hobby Lobby, then Go to your local RailRoad model store. They might have the Rub on Type in stock. I will say this though, be careful of the ones from Hobby Lobby. They do not have the shelf Life of the Model RailRoad ones.
