Hello, First post ever, hope the category is "close enough"
Hopefully some of you are familiar with 70's iron ons, by Roach, Rats Hole, etc. Back then, there were no home computers or printers. Also, these weren't HTV either. But, the colors were very bright and vibrant and often included neon and glitter. How and/or who made/makes transfers like this? What is the method? I imagine a professional company made them back then, but with what equipment? Is it still possible today?
Thank you
Scott

I think a lot of them were plastisol transfers...

But who made them? Is there a place that continues to make such transfers? Or can these be made at home?

Yes there are many places that do them. And you can do them yourself. You need some transfer paper and adhesive powder and burn your screens backwards. I've experimented with them and have had good results with dark colors but I haven't been real happy with white ink (but I lost interest because it really wasn't saving me any time for names etc.)
