    Bobs original request of "lesser known" logos may produce limited results compared to his "open" suggestion. My feelings are; this subject is kinda relevant to the age and area of interest of the wide spectrum of HAMB members .
    Some of my logos may seem garden variety to many of us graybeards, but hopefully many others will see some entertainment value in them.

    My 55 chevy 2dr hdtp came with these on the wing windows.....It ran c/mp at maple grove (I found time slips in the car) when I got it in '85 or '86 it had been sitting out, but still had a bake on black vinyl top and remnants of the white paint and lettering - It said "bad boy No. 1" or somthing like that on the front fender.....I started a thread here a while back looking for original pics, but it never went anywhere.....Thanks for the memories!

    Many of these seem to stray from the original topic idea of "lesser known".

    My thoughts too. Many modern, computer generated images too.

    Directly from the OP.^^^^^^^^^^^
    Uncle Bob may chose to reword the thread title.
     
  25. I had thought about that, but so far the thread has gone mostly the way I'd hoped. There's only so much room in the title line and in my mind "lesser known" could include ones that the under, oh let's say 50 years old, crowd might not be aware of even though the companies may still be alive. Let's call it allowable drift...........

    These bring back my miss-spent youth.
    We were kidsin SoCal in the 60's and rode our bikes to alot of these shops.
    Alot of these I had from the major strips of the day. We'd ride to Long Beach then spend the night in a park.
    Great times.
