Default All C4s have a hidden pic of apple pie, bow-tie & hot dog?

C4 Corvettes were branded with a hidden picture of an apple pie, a bow-tie, and a hot dog. This picture is hidden beneath the rear cargo carpet.[citation needed]

I found this gem on Wikipedia. I owned a C4 for three years and never heard about this.

Is this old news?

It also has a pic of a bat. Look in the dark spot to the left of the other symbls. Its just the verts and is located over the rear speaker on passenger's side.

All American! Baseball, hotdogs, apple pie and Chevrolet.

I would assume it comes from the old Chevy TV commercial, (music please) "Baseball, Hotdogs, apple pie and Chevrolet"
