Im working on an Idea based on the 1903 catalog cover. I like to put the working idea out for critique and suggestions. Id really like to hear your ideas be they color shape, anything. Im thinking "Sauk City, Wisconsin" in smaller letters following the bottom curve. Im working on other ideas for the front over the pocket.

Maybe curve the SAVAGE FEST letters across the top of the circle rather than through it?
Looks pretty good.

I think Calhoun is right about curving the top.

Maybe "SAVAGE" at top, "FEST" at bottom and "Sauk City, WI" inside at top... all curved.
Great idea...I like it!

Seems Ive forgotten how to do some of this stuff, took me an hour and 20 min to figure out how to put letters onto a curved line properly I used to know how to do that.

Hi GD, I think if you dropped the crossed guns down to the mid to bottom third of the SVG logo, rather than directly through the center ( so it doesnt look like your crossing out or cancelling the fest), and arced the savagefest words at top, you got a winner there. It will be more memorable to use the outline of the state it was in, rather than the horsey pic. I like it alot. Great job, and effort.

I'm thinking that if you reduce the Savage Fest logo a bit and center it over Sauk City that would be a winner. Might have to have huge Wisconsin to make it work.

What the heck is that big red blob behind the crossed rifles? Isn't Wisconsin a blue state?

Gary You are doing a great job. Your idea to put Sauk City, WI on the bottom of the state would balance out the entire image very well in my opinion.
