Just received my free gift.

Me too!

Just got mine today, thinking about getting a frame for it.

Just got mine today, thinking about getting a frame for it.

That would be fun!

A small frame would be a nice touch….

Interesting that the final product matches the concept fairly closely. Usually that doesn’t happen in the auto industry.

 

[AKrietzer]

Yippee, mine arrived!

 

[cookiemonster131]

Mine too

 

[metroshot]

Gee I never got anything...

Received a nice letter( forum) in the mail yesterday with a note and a rendering drawing of the slate truck. It's a nice reminder they know I'm still here.

COLLECTABLE

Got mine, adding to my collection!

 

[Duke Slater]

I need a stronger magnet to hold this on my fridge truck…

Got mine today, it's a nice print. Letterpress by the feel of it. I wonder if Slate had a local Detroit or Long Beach letterpress shop produce these?

(*edit, just noticed they were mailed from Michigan, so that limits it down)

I looked up the name on the artwork, Henri Kavaja. The guy has a long and impressive history of designing vehicle exteriors that went into production, and even lists a bunch of design patents on his linkedin profile:
