<font color="blue">Check out this tag. I don't know if it is real, auction doesn't say. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif
Anyone know when these were made? http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif

I believe those to be recent repops.I saw a Vendor at VetteFest selling those a few years ago.He said he transfered a Motion decal onto a plastic license plate.
I don't think Joel ever made those back in the day,just from what I have learned.

No question they are homemade....I;ve never seen an original Mr. Motion decal that big... actually I've only ever seen original examples of that particular decal in one size. (much smaller than the logo on this license plate) I'm wondering if he may have had them silk screened or if they're just a big vinyl repro decal stuck on a white plate? Anyone buy one of these, or see one close-up?

The one I saw,he took the original small Mr.Motion decal and had it enlarged,then silk screened onto a white plastic plate.

I didn't think it was real, but it doesn't hurt to ask.
Way too much stuff on e-bay when you scan 'Baldwin Motion'.
I am very sad that so many people are out there lying to all about originality.
Why not say it's a repop &amp; if it's cool, you will still sell them.
Oh well http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif </font>
