The attachment pics disappeared?
Edit: Ok, the pics are back.
The housing's trim bezel and needle reminds me of older VDOs...

Hi Explo,
the Drag Specialties on-line catalog ought to show their complete instrument line?
And yeah, I don't see no attachments neither.

I edited and reattached them, hopefully it worked
Drag still offers a 1000rpm=60mph 1:1 mini speedo.

Hi Explo,
a Bristolian would say:- "Theese cassent post photos? Theese cassent even spell proper."
Not there old logo but their old logo.
The mini-speedo's logo appears to be based on the Imperial Russian or perhaps Austro-Hungarian Double Eagle symbol.
As to whether Drag Specialties ever used that symbol as a corporate logo.
"Sorry mate, I dunno neiver."

A couple of Drag Specialties logos from the '70s.
Hi 2Many,
yup, that's them.
Heraldic usage is that a leftwise diagonal slash (the bar sinister) across a coat of arms says the wearer is an acknowledged illegitimately born person of that lineage.
And as Heraldry is a form of picture writing involving bad puns, the logo says:- "We are two-faced bastards"
Which may or may not be appropriate to Drag Specialties and perhaps why they quit using it?
Hay, Fred!
I also see twins, arrangements in kinda "V" patterns.
Knowing some of those types back then, I figured that they just chose images that were artistically appealing, ......or intimidating...
