Ties or Miro could get a fresh one sorted on a heartbeat.

Did *she* have to fight with Disney?IIRC, the AVG tiger patch designs have been copyrighted by Lydia Rossi, daughter of Dick Rossi of the 1st Pursuit.
Mr. Ties eh? As soon as I find out what squadron my grandmothers plane was in I think I will contact him. I’m also planning on getting the name painted in the back of my A-2. As soon as the Poughkeepsie is ready.You could also get in touch with @ties70 , I think he could do about anything you want!

Dallas TexasTies will master the art and the patch. Where are you located?
I’m working on that. My grandmother played a big part in a war bond drive that purchased a B-17, named “The Spirit of Ellis County Kansas” I distinctly remember, even after all these years, seeing the pictures of her standing in front of the plane with a group of people. I remember her telling me it was taken in March 1943, and it it flew into the Russell airport because the runway at the Hays airport was too short and the air base at walker wasn’t ready yet. I haven’t seen the pictures since she passed away in 1994. They are with my uncle in Kansas as far as I know. However he can’t look for them easily since he’s elderly and with limited mobility. So whenever I manage to make it back home I will try to find them. I’m hoping to find what squadron it was assigned to, it’s fate and crewmen names. I’m planning on the squad patch and name tag in front and on the back the name painted on with the likeness of the plane painted below, and any mission bombs below that. I think it would be fitting tribute to my grandmothers contribution to the war effort.Do you have any information at all, some pictures, maybe? I bet some of the folks around here could help.
Hi Dear @Ken at Aero LeatherSorry to but in here but Shawn, for f*ck sake can't you design something of your own for a change?
I've just looked at the range of Aero copies on your website
It's taken 40 years to gather these but I'm hardy surprised, Ralph Lauren and many others copied us (far better) long before you but at least they made up their own names for the styles they'd ripped off
Do me ONE favour.................. at least stop using our product names, Bootlegger for starters, go buy a thesuarus and get you own names
Remember this..............without my initial recomendation where would you stand on this forum, you'd still be making jackets for AVI for next to nothing
Have also seen that done on photo’s ‘borrowed’ from Noble House, Eastman....all labels blurred but you CAN see where they’ve come from.... bit mean of the copier in my humble.... and is it really necessary? If you’re in the manufacturing business - photo your own product?? Is it not also a tad fraudulent to pass off someone elses hard work for your own?Correct
The term "Barnstormer" being an example, Before 1985 these D/B Coats had never had a generic name. We dreamt that one up in 5 mins over a cup of coffee one morning, the term is now the definitive name for the style. Flattered not pissed off on that one I suppose
"
Bootlegger, Hooch Hauler, Moonshiner, Teamster, Hudson, Thunder Bay etc etc took a lot more thought, HIghwayman was borrowed" from a defunct outfit in 1983 but now Registered Aero Trademark design
How would I feel if I was Mr Schott about the use of the term "Perfecto", equally peeved I believe, and rightly so. BTW We have never referred to a Cross Zip as a Perfecto
Pinching names is like lifting pics of the Aeromarine off the Aero site and putting the 5 Star logo on top of the "borrowed" picture and posting it on ebay & Amazon...................which is how the whole story started and how I came across Shawn in the first place
The rest, as the saying goes, is history
