Ultra wonderful!!!!! They did this once - then backed off. What they are calling "Boomerang" was originally named "Skylark". Doesn't matter, I'll take it either way.

Sorry--looks like it was reintroduced so recently that they haven't posted a picture yet. The press release was dated yesterday, so I'm going to keep checking.
Bye-bye boring grey. Hello aqua boomerangs!

Good eye Veg!
Now see, the release I saw was May 5th, and I was at Home Depot a day or two later and inquired. They had no idea what I was talking about!
Here's a pic I grabbed from that release.....

Decisions, decisions!
Do I go for the aqua, coral, or charcoal?

And if you have the cash, Pastense puts in several big orders from Formica for some other "retro" patterns, take a look at the bottom of this page for the Cracked Ice and Glacier patterns: http://www.pastense.com/surfaces.html
Cash is King!
Very cool site - lots of retro design elements. We went to a store in Minneapolis last weekend called Kilroy's Classic Malt Shop Supply that had tons of these things in stock and also many, many old signs for sale. There was a great GE round logo and a Speed Queen sign that we swooned over, but alas, left with nothing!

We have the big GE logos and "General Electric" signs on the transmitters I use--but can't take them-they are so COOL!!The equipment is in use and right on the front for all to see-would be noticed if they "dissappeared" Same with the big Bronze Continental electronics" logos on some other transmitters I use.I am not the only one that dreams of having one.also in the other building I worked in-they had some older GE Equipment that had BRONZE GE signs and logos-were even beautiful!!The equipment came from the 1930's.The chillers there for their AC had bronze "Carrier" logos.also liked the "Crocker-Wheeler" logos on the large motors that drove the old chillers.
