Quick and easy white on black graphics

Yes, it is possible to "still get", much like germanium transistors.  But where just about any art supply store used to carry reams of the stuff, before laser printers, and you could just walk in and buy a sheet, it's hunt and special-order these days.

I'm fortunate that I bought "reams" of the stuff (black) over 20 years ago from a large art-supply store near work that was clearing the stuff out.  Generally not enough 'z' on a sheet (not a popular letter) so I have to legend controls as "gain" instead of "fuzz".  I also find that, as the stuff has gradually dried over time, despite my best efforts, I have to lay down a light coat of clear laquer first, so the letters have something to adhere to, or else all you get is the "rub-ing" and little of the "on-ing".

This site has a history of the demise of Letraset - https://hullabaloo.co.uk/blog/whatever-happened-letraset/ .  Indiscussing the higher and lower-frequency letters provided, I nearly spit my coffee out when I read: "God knows how designers in Wales and Poland coped."

I've a bit of a stash in various sizes, white and black, pretty much useless now as i can't get a consistent transfer if any at all. Useful only for a worn decayed kind of look.

Well you know, you don't have to write...
"Llanfair­pwllgwyngyll­gogery­chwyrn­drobwll­llan­tysilio­gogo­goch". You can get away with "Llanfairpwllgwyngyll" or simply "Llanfair PG".
Badly need a Celtic font though. Old English will not stand!

UK can still get rub-down on the high street from W H Smith. Limited choice black or gold, but it's cheap and can serve well in the right situation.
I wouldn't know where go in Canada for a good rub-down

Jim, where abouts are you in Wales??

I can get an enclosure laser engraved for the low low price of just four times what the entire rest of the stompbox costs in parts

Whoa, really? You need to befriend someone that works there

I drove through Welshpool once on the way to Barmouth, nice part of the world.  I'm in Bristol, was hoping you were a litter closer, there aren't many pedal builders near me
