Dick Oshira and Seattle Caviar Signs
All I am trying to do is upload a photo of our original caviar sign. Unfortunately, I may be a dinosaur. My idea was to spotlight our most loved caviar signs that gem of a man, Dick Oshira, created with his genius talent of Signcraft. When we were in our first location, down on the shores of Lake Union, we posted an oval sign, appropriate for a very large yacht, on the side of our building. It simply said “CAVIAR”. Black glossy background, metallic gold letters, with red outlines. Our logo in gold in the center top. ( Now if I knew what I was doing, my photo should appear.) Alas, words will have to do until I figure this out. Dick is a signmaker and as fine as they come. Our next sign, actually says SEATTLE CAVIAR COMPANY, with caviar in large gold leaf caps, a swimming sturgeon in “beluga blue” and the word Beluga in gold. It is a huge sign that says we are in business and we are here to stay. Our latest sign was just finished and it is above the door at 2922 Eastlake Avenue East: Gold Seattle Caviar Letter, nice white oak logo painted gold, on a black background. Crowning glory at the end of the sign in a red oval: established 1990. We will soon be twenty years in business, a milestone indeed. Now if I could just figure out how to post these photos……

I’d love to see this photos. You should be able to upload the photos for free to a site like http://imageshack.us/ or something. Or is the trouble getting them onto your computer from the camera?
