Would you have used stick on numbers , back in the 70,s ??

[AL]

I am restoring a  1979  mongoose  Roger decoster....    Ive got hold of a NOS  black oval number plate, and thought a number  79 would look good.
Question is ....back in the 70,s would you have used stick on vinyl numbers?   or would it look better with hand painted numbers ,  like I know alot of the old Moto-x bikes tended  to have

My Goose that I got in the late 70's had a plate on it with number 7 on it that I got from a car/motorbike parts shop. I only got it because it was the same as the one that Barry Sheene had.

-hand cutting of numbers was done too

signwriting and stone cutting was being done for ages
