Forgiveness is less effort than permission.  |
Right, and that's plan b. The nice thing about the logo puzzle is that it gives the user a nice large easily solved area to start with. The other thing about getting permission is that many of the quality puzzle printers I've found have dimensions that are not quite the 1.5 aspect ratio of this shot, which means there are blank areas to fill. The most obvious way to do that is add words like "Swiss Army" and company name.
Funny thing is I actually have some contacts within Victorinox so this might be an easier conversation to have than one would think. Another side project that I started a couple years ago was a book on the history and evolution of the knives. First thing I did was contact Victorinox and they were more than happy to give me permission to use logos and trademarks pending approval of the source material (i.e. making sure it's not a hit piece on their products).
