Fourah Bay College Shield Decal: A Symbol of West African History

This vinyl kiss-cut decal showcases the distinguished coat of arms of Fourah Bay College, the oldest university in West Africa. The design is a powerful visual statement, rich with symbolism and historical significance.

Heraldic Elements and Meaning

The shield itself is the focal point, rendered with precise detail. The vibrant green field forms the base, complemented by a crisp white upper section. This color combination speaks to the college's founding and its deep-rooted ties to the Church Missionary Society.

Dominating the center of the design is a striking red cross, a clear emblem of the Christian mission and the college's role in disseminating both education and faith. Superimposed above the cross is a stylized depiction of the African continent, a poignant reminder of the college's pioneering impact on African education.

Completing the composition are the palm trees, strategically placed in the upper corners. These verdant symbols evoke the tropical landscape of Sierra Leone, and represent peace and triumph.

A Legacy in Visual Form

This decal offers a miniature representation of a profound legacy. The artwork meticulously captures the essence of the Fourah Bay College shield, allowing you to display a symbol of West African educational heritage and its enduring contributions to the world.

Glossy kiss-cut vinyl stickers made for smooth, indoor surfaces — laptops, journals, mirrors, and other finished items. Crisp edges, vivid color, strong hold, and not waterproof.

What “kiss-cut” means: the blade cuts the vinyl layer into the exact shape while leaving the backing liner whole, so pieces separate cleanly and lift off the sheet without tearing. It’s the neatest way to produce shaped stickers and multi-piece sheets.

  • Material: reliable vinyl face with a permanent acrylic adhesive formulated for smooth, non-porous surfaces.
  • Finish: glossy surface that enhances contrast and depth without feeling overly reflective.
  • Printing: eco-solvent inks provide dense color and crisp detail for fine lines and gradients.
  • Use case: intended for indoor environments only — not waterproof. Not recommended for continuous exposure to moisture or dishwashing.
  • Application friendly: easy-peel backing and a liner that releases cleanly to help reduce bubbles and misfeeds during placement.

These stickers perform best on smooth, dust-free surfaces — think laptop lids, sealed notebooks, glass, mirrors, finished shelving and lockers. They’ll stick well where the surface is flat and clean; avoid rough wood, silicone, fabric, and heavily textured paint.

  1. Clean: remove dust and oils with a lint-free cloth. For stubborn grime, use a mild soap and water rinse; let the area dry completely.
  2. Align: peel a corner, position carefully, then press the center down first.
  3. Smooth: work outward from the center with a soft card or a thumb to push air out and ensure the edges set down firmly.

Tip: give the adhesive 24 hours to fully settle before heavy handling. These are not designed for outdoor or wet conditions.

  • Gently dust with a soft, dry cloth, moving from the center outward to avoid scratching the gloss.
  • For light marks, a barely damp microfiber will lift residue — blot, don’t scrub, and dry right away.
  • Avoid bleach, solvents, abrasive pads, and steam; moisture or harsh chemicals can lift edges and fade inks.

Reminder: these stickers are not waterproof. Keep them away from sinks, outdoor exposure, and dishwasher cycles to maintain adhesion and finish.

Sizes are measured across the sticker’s longest side. For example, a 3″ sticker is 3 inches across its largest dimension (height or width, depending on the shape).

The kiss-cut follows the sticker’s outline for a tidy border; complex shapes can show small variances, but the advertised measurement refers to the maximum edge-to-edge length.
