In the very early 1940's - 50's, bombardier used the heading on their letterheads like the one on the page above. They seemed to stick with this for quite awhile and then they adopted the sproket emblom like you still see around today. There are various old sprocket designs, but they remained pretty consistent. You still see this emblem on alot of todays ski-do and sea-do litature.

If you go to ebay.ca you can usually find a lot of the old stuff as well as a few machines for sale. There is usually a bunch of the logo's for a reasonable price and the quality is ok. They make them in different sizes and they make them to be installed on light or dark surfaces by varying the hues of the design. The company is somewhere in Ontario.

the sprocket emblem just hit me. i have the machine from radar-runs put on as my screen background. it's on the back engine  rad door. i like that maintenance manual emblem. i think it's in time, and looks right for the machine. i'm going to get one made for my shed window. thanks, i will look on ebay shortly. it'll take me awhile but i'll find it.

I have purchased from her a couple of times and am very happy with the product and service. You can get them in either 3", 5", 10" or 12" and in about six different colors. Black, white, blue, red, silver or gold.
