ABSTRACT:
A method of making sign component pieces to be interfitted in close abutting relationship. The preferred method aspect of the invention involves imprinting upon one or more flexible rectangular translucent cover sheets successive horizontal bands of repeated sign-forming indicia, the indicia being precisely positioned with respect to two intersecting reference margins of the sheet. The cover sheets are then laminated to a thin flexible backing sheet capable of adhering subsequent to be severed component sign pieces to a component piece support surface. The resulting laminated sheet is then applied to individual cutting devices, each having an adjustable backstop positioned to effect a linear cutting operation spaced a distance therefrom equal to the horizontal or vertical extent of the component piece involved. The cutting devices are scissor-type shearing devices which forms a bevelled undercut so that the bevelling is identical for the top and right sides of each severed component piece and forms an opposite bevelled undercut along the left and bottom margin of each component piece formed therefrom.
