Is there a good source for patches/clothing/stickers, etc. with vintage aircraft logos such as Lockheed, Boeing, etc? I can't seem to find much for sale online.

Someone raised that issue about 18 months ago and Chris (Warbird Kid) was working on some really classy looking shirt ideas a few months ago, There might be issues with using registered trademarked logos, even for long gone manufacturers. (law dogs and all that stuff) :wink:

You can get Boeing logo stuff through their on line catalog-I'd check very carefully on others or you might meet the legal team that represents 'Car Talk' on NPR Dewey, Cheatum, & Howe.

Doing custom personalization, engraving, embroidery (logos, patches), etc. I might add that I have been contacted in the past regarding items that I had on sale ... without adding a lot of details, I would just add that one has to be very careful and especially when dealing with Company logos, etc.

This will be of virtually no help but..
A couple of years ago, a website offering just what you're looking for, old aircraft logos in decals and patches.
The old firms that are no longer around or old logos of some firms that still exist in some form.

The old "Bell Aircraft", WACO etc. comes to mind.

Another way to research logos, etc. would be to contact 'brand' clubs.
