Tim, Your right. My mistake. It's not the city name, it's the exchange name. My bad.

You may be right. Maybe it wasn't a uniform thing for all parts of the country. I know one thing, putting a name to it sure helped for remembering. I've forgotten about everything but that!

Since we are all custom designing your logo for you, I'd like t to comment on color. I would like to see some yellow in there against the blue...or maybe orange. Ok? Thanks I'm picturing signs with bowties and seeing yellow in there. I guess like the Super Service signs? A touch of red for accent as well. Or, orange with your blue would look good. You know, like the motors. I have these Tonka Toy sized pressed steel '69 Chevy Stepsides with GM plant markings on the doors. I'd have to check, but I believe they have yellow and white in the lettering. And don't forget the pinstripe accents I ordered. Do your own job and be proud of it, but maybe at a show where there's a pinstriper you could get him to do some outline and scroll striping (justa touch)
