Default C5 Embroidered Patch

I am contemplating having the C5 cross-flag patch manufactured. It doesn't seem to be available anywhere. Is anyone interested in Purchasing this item for use on a jacket or sweatshirt? Please let me know by private message. I can forward a picture if desired.

Would be interested, but just be sure you check with the General before you do this - trademark violations can get messy.

Here's a potential place to contact for permission if needed:

Try contacting Equity Management in San Diego, CA. They handle the licensing for use of GM logos. Point of contact is Rick Carmen (858) 558-2500.

He indicated that if the items are for sale only to club members and not the general public, there is no fee required.

The above information was posted here on the forum quite a while ago, so not sure if it is still current.

There was a guy selling them on ebay. I bought 3 from him and I believe he was out of canada. I used 1 on a jacket and 2 for my seats at the time.

I'd say it would probably sell well at the right price. You'd need versions for each Corvette generation

The problem will be how much $$ is added after the General takes his cut on the trademark.

Black back ground and white oval (like on the floor matts) and I'd buy a few. (not sure they would look good on any white or colored back ground).

If you look at the location on that patch on Ebay is says "Hong Kong" This is probably a bootleg item. I doubt that any royalties have been paid to GM.
