Description
These words - they describe a lot of my favorite women - so I love it that they're being applied to a car. The fins on these cars make me swoon. It's terribly romantic to have all of that beauty wrapped into a car. SUCH a wonderful era for cars. Ilove
this matchcover. Plus... those fins! I know cars have to be more useful now, and lighter, but I remember my grandma kind of peering overtop the steering wheel of this massive, and I do mean massive, red sedan she drove. The leather smelled good and when she signaled the car made that lovely tock, tock, tock noise. I drive a beat-to-hell old Dodge truck with this hilarious camper lid on it which is too big for the truck bed. We actually dug that camper lid up out of our cousin's yard; she wanted it to go away. So we strapped it onto our truck and there it has stayed. It's perfect. I adore all car matchcovers. It'd been cool to ride in a car with fins, but that was before my time.
The image you see is exactly what we use to produce the magnet. (We include 1 free GypsyFaith sticker per order.)
All GypsyFaith magnets are double the strength of a normal refrigerator magnet; this magnet will hold several pieces of paper to a surface without sliding. The surface is textured, so it does not scratch. We developed it over a period of several years with our production partner in China. It took us a long, long time to get to this PVC product. Our intention, as we developed this product, was to make it as durable as our handmade magnet products were when we first began selling them more than 14 years ago.
Images used to make our magnets are scanned at 9600dpi resolution, reduced to 960dpi for production.
SIZE: This magnet is exactly 1.835 x 2.362 inches OR 4.66 x 5.999 cm (It is about the size of the original matchcover.)
PACKAGING: This magnet is packaged in a hard plastic container for retail sale, then we place it into the mailer.
It ships in a hand addressed, postage stamped padded mailer.
*We ship First Class US Mail for our customers domestic and international; for domestic orders the ship time is approximately 7 days.
We do not expedite shipping because we live on an island off the coast of Maine and shipping from here is quite slow. Our customers would only be paying for an upgrade that would not benefit them.
Cost for shipping, as well as tax, is calculated at checkout.
