I own a graphic design and advertising firm - www.paoloroman.com. I'll be happy to work something up. Give me a few weeks... Cheers, == Paul Misencik 1971 MGB Vintage Race Project www.sopwithracing.
there good I suggest that we call it the Lucas Electrical Emergency Response Team, or LEERT for short. Therefore if you are indeed a member, you would be (yup, you guessed it) "A LEERT" Sorry......
I'll be happy to work on one too. That said, I have to ask if Lucas is still an established trademark... anyone know? It's one thing to do it for fun, but if they have a registered trademark then we
Today I wear my black "LUCAS King of Darkness" T-shirt again with joy! In Europe this shirt is obtainable at typical classic vehicle events, mostly in the motorcycle area. Cheers, Hans '71 BGT P.S. f
As long as no one is making any money off the trademark, and it is not widely distributed, the use of it is less of interest to the owner. Besides, if we get slapped with an injunction to stop wearin
Actually, it's not really that simple. First of all, how vigorously copyright or trademark infringment is pursued can vary widely, and it's always directly up to the company that feels it is being i

I believe there is a "Lucas Quality Inspector" hat already on the market that is supposed to be a spoof. So if that's okay, why wouldn't this be? I'm sure it's not licensed by the miinions of the Pri
You're right. If they are using the Lucas logo without permission, and no one is doing anything about it, then this is exactly the kind of thing that probably implies that whoever owns the Lucas bra
"Fair use" includes spoofs and parodies, which the teeshirt would definitely be. -Rock http://www.rocky-frisco.com -- "JJ Cale Live" CD & Video: http://www.rocky-frisco.com/calelive.htm The Wednesday
The "Fair use' you're thinking of primarily relates to copyright law, but there is a sort of equivalent for trademark law. It's a little murkier, however: "A review of trademark parody cases give us
My own opinion about Lucas electrics is that they are, in fact, excellent. Lucas usually gives me the opportunity to fix rather than replace. Once I have fixed a Lucas component, it stays fixed for a
