“My father, David Bowen is a talented designer, hand letterer, pinstriper and installer,” says Shane Bowen, Innovation Installations, Ham Lake, Minnesota, “who has been in the sign business since the 1970s. He’s also the reason that I’m in the sign business today. These are a few examples of his hand lettered signs—including the saw he sent me as my birthday gift this year! “
