Revised Wreath Logo

by Jason Edge

Dec 10, 2012

While we have our main logo with the 63 & 64 front ends, we also have our alternate wreath logo that came about last year when we were designing something for the chest of our club shirts.  This past weekend I revised it to give it a gold ring and and gold wreath using the same colors in the CLC logo and have to say I'm very pleased with it.

I've loaded these logo's separately to the website and have posted them below. You will definitely see these more in the future:

    Don,

    I changed the center section around the wreath and crest to black and think it looks pretty cool. I kinda think it would make the overall header too dark though but would look good on a different background.

    ps..I did try to put create a black circle area around the crest only, but could not get it to be concentric with outer gold ring due to size and shape of the crest. Here was the best I could come up with:

    Keep in mind that if we are talking about embroidering on a shirt, and say we are doing a black shirt all of the inside-the-circle background would be black regardless of what color(s) I fill in the inner circle.  Now we are screen printing on a shirt like the t shirts we could have them screen print the inside a particular color instead of as a transparency as we did on first/current batch of shirts (see inserted picture at bottom).  I am thinking a screen printed shirt with the outer gold circle with color filled inside will make it more distinct regardless..but not sure until I see it on a shirt. 

    I think what has been confusing is we are talking about all types of uses of the logo and I've tried to respond in 5 minute snippets from work throughout the day. 

    - If you are talking about the header up top 1) we have the CLC log and 2) it needs to blend in with the back blackground but not be too dark.

    - If we are talking about the club shirts that breaks down into a lot of discussion topics.

       --> First, I agree the CLC or Cadillac LaSalle Club should be mentioned somewhere, but the chest log is not the only option as we have our main "official" logo on the back of the shirt that is much larger and perhaps a better place to add it...but I also want to retain the website address.
     
       --> Second, if you are screen printing like we did with last year's shirt we can trasfer quite a bit of detail...but probably want to be consistent with what we would use on jackets, polo shirts etc.

    ---> third jackets and polo shirts, with embroidery is a very different animal and have to keep it simple are you end up with something unrecognizeable.  When we came up with the first shirt designs it was something that was attemped at least once without success, and we had to come back and have weeks of discussion.  I'm hoping when I go back to PKD I can basically explain what we  are after and they can help us come up with the best design.
