RROCA Club Logo

This is a fully reconstructed logo at the highest practical resolution. It reproduces as closely as possible the design of the original, within the limits of my artistic ability (i.e. paltry).
At 2380 x 3208 pixels, it has been demonstrated to be suitable for printing up to A2 size.
Note that it uses the Sykes illustration for the Spirit Of Ecstasy rather than the stylised one in the historical logo. This, unfortunately, makes it a bit vague at small sizes.
Also note that the 'S' in 'Owners Club' is not vertical as it is in the original. It's that way because no matter how hard I tried I just couldn't make it look right in the reconstruction.
I actually prefer it like this as, after long study of the design, I have come to consider the original treatment as somewhat clumsy.

It has been pointed out that the lion needs some colour infill to stand out against light backgrounds. A light grey (#f0f0f0) seems to do the job without making the lion look out of place. This infill can be achieved with any good graphics program.

Spirit Of Ecstasy

This is a heavily cleaned scanned copy of an A4 print of the well-known Sykes illustration. At 3650 x 4210 pixels it could probably be printed up to A1 size!

Rolls-Royce Badge

This was taken from a high-resolution photograph of a large (> 1000mm) poster. The photo bitmap was converted to vector graphics (with Inkscape) as SVG format as well as being exported as a PNG file.
At 2375 x 4202 pixels it's about as big as you're ever going to get. (If I'd photographed it in portrait mode it would be even bigger!) But as vector graphics, of course, pixels mean nothing because you can scale it to any size you like with little effect on definition.
The badge body is in black, which is the wrong way around. You can easily invert it (and optionally fill/change the letters to red) with any good graphics program.

Bentley Wings

This was taken from a high-resolution photograph of a large (> 1000mm) poster. The photo bitmap was converted to vector graphics (with Inkscape) as SVG format as well as being exported as a PNG file.
At 5568 x 2288 pixels it's definitely as big as you're ever going to get. But as vector graphics, of course, pixels mean nothing because you can scale it to any size you like with little effect on definition.
The full size images do not include transparency around the 'B' but you can fix that with any good graphics program.
