Decal of Prospector and School Kids

Where can a person get a decal of a prospector about 12"high? I would like to get one and put it on the front my school bus. I think it would cause a stir among some of the enviromental granols that we have teaching in our schools who think prospectors and miners are the curse of the land. It would also help the little da lings to figure out which is their bus to get on. I teach a prospecting class to the 4th and 5th graders each year, and I tell you what, I never seen such a bunch of more googly eyed kids when that brass,(I mean gold) pops through the black sand. I did a class of about 35 this year and made up a yellow nugget for each one of them. They had to keep panning till they got it right and then they got to keep the nugget.Course when I was showing them they saw the real thing. The way some of those kids were hanging on to that yellow nugget youd of thought I had given them the real thing. hmmmmm I wonder if they ever found out. What a blast, to get involved with the kids in school, volunteer to teach them how to prospect for gold and they will be coming back for more, after all they are our future.
Been doing this now for about 6 years.. Best to you Allen in MT
