Old style pinstriping

11 x 14 Museum quality poster from original pinstriping by T Stratton.
Pinstriping has been done for years on automobiles. It was originated in the very early 1950s maybe a little sooner by a man named Von Dutch. It’s done using a brush called a sword striper. The stripers I use are made from squirrel tail hair and are generally about 2 1/2 to 3 inches long and if loaded properly with paint are capable of making a line 3 or 4 feet long.
