    ​​I just heard that starting in September, Decals Unlimited is not allowed to sell Steinway decals any more. Steinway would not renew the license. Anyone hear about that? If it is true, does Steinway sell their own decals for all the models they've ever produced?

    Could someone stock up on them and offer them afterwards?

    No, they have no reasonable shelf life.

    Right, the "published" shelf life is 2 months. However, in my ignorance of that fact in the past I have still been able to use them after as much as two years.

    I wonder if this will also apply to Pierce piano atlas (whatever his name is). He sells Steinway decals.

    I wonder what the ramifications would be to make them ourselves.

    Hmmm...I hear lawyers talking.
