I just love simple machines. This heat transfer machine for putting on labels is fast, accurate and safe. We have done hundreds of thousands of transfer labels with it. – You need two hands to make it come down (a green button on each side) so you can’t get your hands caught under the stamper…
I talked to my good friend and great sports mind Mike Manning this morning. He said he loved that the Royals won the wild card play-off game in a walk-off 12th inning comeback. “Even with all those ex-Sox guys on the A’s?” I asked. “We’ve got tons of inventory in Royal and we had nothing…

Inspiring press conference by Farm Aid, impressive music, and some good merch sales happening for a good cause. This year in Raleigh, NC, happening today.
We did the merch for Farm Aid 2014 and arrived early and counted it all in. Hats off to Ruth and Carlos and the Mirror Image staff as a couple thousand items and the counts were off by less then 5 total pieces. A couple of my favorite people with a couple of my favorite…
