1971-72 Bow Tie emblems marked upside down
If anyone ordered an OER Bow Tie emblem for a 1971-72 grille they are marked incorrectly. The thin edge of the emblem is the top. Unfortunately as you can see they marked “TOP” on the blue insert and the chrome surround wrong.

I discovered the same thing. It didn't take long for me to notice it looked really weird.

I don't know what's more funny, the manufacture error, or those that didn't catch it. LOL
