When did the badge colours change to Lighter Blue background and Red diagonal flash?

And to the Thick Black ring around the 'Morgan' badge centre.

No no you're on the wrong track!
In fact this badge is a design error or manufacturing because history does not say who was wrong!
"The " Sports Car Club " badge Was a misprint from the mid 1970s" as our historian Herman POL says.
It's also the version that I read on the internet about this badge "failure", not that much because there would be only 6 copies in total pre-production and making it probably the rarest.
I'm not talking about the price! ...

OK, you got us all with that one pantsdown.

However, did the perpetrator of the error keep the dies so that more could be produced one day for any other avid collectors out there.?

As DaveW usually mentions, watch out for one from the 'cowboy chasers' on Ebay. somestick

I hope you enjoy british humor.
You have invented "English humor commonly referred to a very sophisticated form of humor characterized by its use of darkness and the absurd. However, it is very simplistic to regard it as a variety of humor among other : English humor is at the root of the current meaning of the word "humor", as evidenced by the etymology of the word."
For me it was a way to pay tribute ... sherlock


Everything in life is somewhere else, and you get there in a Morgan.

There is one of these badges on e-bay. Currently at £45 with five plus days to go. I'm watching but I doubt I'll bid because it will go for crazy money.

I reckon that could make over £200, and I doubt he has realised what he's selling. laugh2
