One year, Phantom Regiment did a note card set - maybe 20 or so years ago - with a dozen cards of 4 different images. Another time, very long ago, a Division ll corps sold colorful 6x9 pads of paper, the bottom of a each sheet included several comic-drawn musicians and guard members with the wording A CORPS LINE. Remember when you could buy those Troopers postcards from the canvas wagon? Best deal around. Was it ten for a dollar? One of the postcard pictures was taken at a rodeo, with a sunburst formation, if I recall correctly. I probably bought and mailed over 100 of those Troopers postcards over the years. I realize that paper doesn’t travel or age well. Often times, I’ll prepare my own drum corps stationery notecards on a color copier. It’s easy to buy cheap envelopes at a thrift store or after Christmas. Having access to a paper trimmer/cutter is helpful. Maybe a custom seal set with the corps logo or branded carrier pigeons? (Game of Thrones style) Made me think of this old FedEx commercial. Edited September 2, 2022 by keystone3ply cx 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or what is your dream souvenir? I would love to buy a Phantom Regiment helmet, especially now that wearing headgear seems to be a thing of the past. An iPhone case would be nice too but I don't recall seeing any in Indianapolis this year. Got mine during a PR gala. $500, but so worth it! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
