OCD and Morgan ownership must be an uncomfortable combination. My condolences  . There is a previous thread here about the font but sadly no answer. I'm inclined to agree with the view that it is freehand. However, a letter by Bob Richmond in the latest "Miscellany" has reminded me of the theory, a while ago, that the Morgan logo may have been "cribbed from an old Co-op tobacco tin". I remember seeing pictures that were quite convincing but I don't recall where. Just to add to the OCD woes, Bob's letter also points out that the PlusFour badge on the new model uses a different font!

Thread revival: Did anyone come-up with an answer ? Having named my new acquisition "Ivor" (as in "What car are you driving these days ?": I've-a Morgan; "What colour is it ?": Ivor-y), I want to get some vinyl lettering cut to emblazon the name on the bonnet, and my OCD also says use the correct font. The "o... and....r" should be easy, I just need the correct "I" and "v". Any suggestions ? (of the helpful kind please !).

Clever  It reminds me of the chap I saw on TV a couple of years ago who called his Pembleton "Snotamog".

Look at my TM name "IvorMog" Chosen with the same logic you used to name your car "Ivor" I do like Ian's "Snotamog" PS, my name is Bob although I have been called "Ivor" quite a few times on here. Any further questions, contact Confused.com
