Hi Cute family, I need some help finding a design of an old man, under 4x4, maybe with a walking stick, even a stick figure or caricature type. I don't have time to digitise one so would appreciated any suggestions as to where I can locate one?

Just trying to catch up here and thank everyone for the suggestions, ideas and links I really did appreciate all the responses.
Below is the finished towel which the birthday 'boy' really loved and I so enjoyed creating it for him.

hugs n roses to all, Meganne

Great! Love it!

can this be an idea:

If it's Lawn Bowls, Glenn Harris has some, Emb Lib has a simple silhouette as well. For general 'old folks' designs, I'd head straight for Emerald Originals :) Nicoles has some great Gus designs.

lol best joke i heard today carolyn

Thanks everyone.
One of my (ex) bowling partners is turning 50 so I want to make him a towel with "Old Farts Club Member" on it and I thought an old man bowling design would go well with the text, but they are surprisingly difficult to find.
I have now started digitising one as I can't justify paying $10 for a design I would have to alter anyway, when I can digitise it myself.
I guess there is a price to pay for laziness. LOL!!!!
Thanks heaps though, I got a good laugh out of the funny ones I looked at.
hugs n roses, Meg

Lots of oldies here

Thank you Meganne. I was scrolling through them this morning, definitely some interesting designs and not all were old folks. Hugs, sharon

Sorry Meg, I didn't have time to find any links when I posted earlier.

yes. these are the Gus designs. They were companion to the Stella designs. Several sites had them. You might also check Goldenneedles designs. I has been a couple of years since I stitched them and I have forgotten. Kay

Maybe it was Stitched Impressions. i know Sherry had some on her site. Kay

How about Country Needle. I give up. Kay

It never crossed my mind that this could possibly be for Ray!

This is beginning to feel like an Aussie conspiracy!

What about one of the incarnations of "Gus"?
