Copyright ..... wouldn't try it..http://www.vfw.org/Privacy-Policy/ unless they have permission to reproduce the emblem.

Have this http://www.vfwstore.org/detail.aspx?ID=29479 mounted to your derby cover instead. It's 3 X 3, so it's about the right size. And you would be supporting the VFW.

True I never thought of that. Maybe they will contract one day with someone to sell them in their store, I checked on it and didnt see them. not trying to take money out of their pocket just wanted something to show my support.

I know what you mean. I was going to do the same thing with a V.V.A. emblem, and found out it's a copyright thing. But you can buy the emblem from the VFW and mount it.

Send a PM to story808. You can send him an image and he can etch it onto the derby cover.

Austinsteiner has VFW timing covers though I don't know about derby covers. I have one of their timing covers and it is top notch. I also had them make me a custom horn cover as well. I do know that I have seen VFW derby covers online, but can't recall where off hand.

That is an outstanding looking piece. wish it was the derby cover. I would pick that up but i really want to get rid for the 103 derby cover.
