I should check in again, Aaron, the ones we got for the 18,  Small glastron BIG CARLSON in silver are very nice.

The 88 has BIG GLASTRON little carlson in same Silver on black. When you do get around to these, we will take a pair.

Chad those are pretty rare I guess as they only used them on the really late models. We'd need an original so we can scan it and have it reproduced. Doesn't matter if broken or not. Unless someone can confirm that those emblems are nothing but a regular Glastron sized emblem with the small Carlson next to it. If you find the time send me some close up pics in a 90° angle with some measurements and I'll see what they can do.

When I am working on it next,  I will set one of the CVX-18 emblems on top, and get a photo from strait on.  Seems as though it is the same letter size and font, and same stripped design element for the small letters, just the wording is opposite.

This is the emblem you made for the 1987 CVX-18 as a size comparison to the 1988 badge on the CVX-16.   In 88, that is actually 2 pieces, the Carlson is separate and just riveted next to the GLASTRON , which is probably the standard logo for that year.
