So I made this sticker for my bus last month which seems to become kind of a conversation piece with people on the street and was asked by one gentleman if I can make him one. So I thought I'd post this here as a feeler to see if anyone else would be interested in purchasing one since this is kind of a specialty sticker. So if you, or you know of someone who might interested please feel free to comment below so I get a rough idea of how many I should make which would be $4 each including shipping anywhere in the US. Thanks.

I don’t own a breadbox so I’m out. How about “load of bread”? Have fun with it.

Make sure you get your customers to agree not to copy them
Your lawyer can help draft a contract of adhesion.

Me thinks that lawyer will set you back more than the profits you will make selling 10 years worth of stickers could gain! |

Great sentiment.....but not really possible. I work in the printing industry. Trust me...unless you have piles of money....you cannot prevent people from copying your work...sadly.
You can copy right it.....and its technically assumed to be if you are the original designer and have provenance of your creative process.
But in reality.....you cannot prevent anyone from copying it because:
A. If people are printing their own for their own single use...and gaining no income from sales.....nothing you can do. If I want to print my own....watahca gong to do? And....one can simply "lie" when questioned and say "hey I bough it from a guy at a show....don't remember who".
B. Its all about enforcement. If you see someone printing and selling your design....you can lawyer up and send cease and desist letters....but if they don't....you are going to court....and copyright cases are long , slow and costly. Do you have the money and is it worth it?
The big boys....like VW....are not just protecting somewhat generic typographical artwork like this. They are protecting their actual logo....corporate image...brand mark. And....they have big dollars behind it and WILL take you to court.
