Looks good , colours are fine by me, need to keep it simple due to the set up costs, bearing in mind that it is an individual member making the initial outlay and has to purchase a minimum quantity and may not get them all sold

As Pete said, the griffon will surely be copyrighted.

Just a thought take the V out of the griffin flag and replace it with OOF be no copyright issues then

In which case I shall e-mail Vauxhall and see if we can or can't have the Griffon.

Origins of the name and the logo

The griffin emblem, which is still in use, is derived from the coat of arms of Fulk le Breant, a mercenary soldier who was granted the Manor of Luton for services to King John in the thirteenth century. By marriage, he also gained the rights to an area near London, south of the Thames. The house he built, Fulk's Hall, became known in time as Vauxhall. Vauxhall Iron Works adopted this emblem from the coat of arms to emphasise its links to the local area. When Vauxhall Iron Works moved to Luton in 1905, the griffin emblem coincidentally returned to its ancestral home.

The logo (as pictured) used to be square however now, it is circular.

VAUXHALL MOTORS
Over the years pcl have supplied Vauxhall Motors with various items of corporate clothing. When the plant in Luton was closing, pcl corporatewear were asked to supply a large quantity of bespoke casual jackets, subtly branded with the Vauxhall Griffon, as a good-bye gift for their staff. Pcl have had an ongoing relationship as supplier of Work wear for the 400 staff at the Parts and Warehouse Operation which is still located in Luton
