Yes or No.
having scene a legal document today,nothing to do with this matter,yep I'd be signing or no longer using the Ferrari names or logos. Ist thing they will do, is require from your club,proof of income earned by the usage of the name and logos without SpA consent and or what advantage the clubs has got from the usage of the name logos ie membership (income gained) There is a number of high profile cases where the non approved usage of a trade mark by a seller has lent to them paying income earnt back to the owner of the name/trademark ect.
I;m not sure if this actually relates to this but here goes. IF you found a master tape at the tip (and this sort of thing does actually happen)(let's say it's a INXS demo tape), by law you own the tape because you found it as it was thrown away. However..........you own the tape........but you don't own what's on the tape. We (the FCA) use the name Ferrari, but we don't own the name......they do and they have not cared that we use their name for along time. BUT now things have changed and they want to give us official permission to use their name in our club name by signing their document , which will allow us to become an authorized Ferrari club.
bands master tapes that have been found at the tip;- 1) cold chisel demo tapes for 1st album 2) Lobby Loyde unreleased full album 3) Aztecs live from Armstrongs masters 1972 4) Full live concert at Myer Music bowl 1972 (spectrum, la de da's, jerry & joy boys friends) 5) Max Merritt live at sunbury 1972 6) Full live "Mulwaya" rock concert (canned heat, friends, aztecs, stephen stills etc. etc.) All given to me and some I now have permission to use on future projects. (no BEATLES yet)
