Noticed last year down in Wildwood... Seagraves said they logos are "property" of the City of NY and the logos could not be photographed. The whole thing after 9-11 and MIS-USE of the FDNY and Logos spured the issue. Some of the guys who do Models (Kitbashing) and make and sell the decals have been hunted down by City Lawyers. The TRADEMARK and COPYWRITE laws were mentioned....
Can't make this "STUFF" up when red tape and NYC is involved!!! <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_crazy.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

Remember a couple of years back when the City banned the individual fire companies from using their individual logos? I believe that this has all happened under the reign of Mike Bloomberg, founder of Bloomberg financial networks on radio and tv.
