Default Traction... Action Stickers

I've just ordered a pair for the Camaro. My question is, did they use the Lakewood logo sticker as well back in the day? Seems like half the pictures I find have the Lakewood logo sticker, half just have Traction... Action with no Lakewood logo.

I want it to be accurate to back in the day.

Thanks.

Here is the deal.

I have had 7-8 NOS early 70's in the box Lakewoods over the years. The triangular sticker and traction action decals were inside the box and not installed so I guess it is whatever the owner did with the stickers. I think one set had the traction action decals applied but not the triangular one-and this was a sealed box when I opened it.

Also the early Lakewoods the "Traction Action" was printed/painted on and not decals. Tampo printing I think they called it back then.

I have seen official Lakewood photos with and w/o the triangular decals and some competition Traction Action bars with just the triangular decals and no Traction Action decals.

Confused yet? lol

I would go by what is in the ad above or whatever look you prefer.
