I've a copy of the Golden Eagle Insurance liability application. U wanna
reach them at P. O. Box 85826, San Diego, CA 92186-5826. Fax 619
463-3724. The application looks very simple on the surface if you are
familiar with insurance and legal jargon, but you must provide business
records (contracts, tax returns, resume, published or promotional
material etc.) with your application.
