Why is the old cannnibal corpse logo still used on patches?
I've noticed and been curious for a while as to why cannibal corpse still uses the old logo on some of their regular patches, but on their strip patches, back patches, tshirts, and CDs it's all the new logo. Does anyone know why?
Which TShirt?

because the new ones with old logo are bootlegs.

I don't think so. Last week I went to my local rock shop and bought a cannibal corpse hammer smashed face patch, it has the (c)1993 blue grape merchandising co. Here is the rockshop i bought it from: http://tshirtslayer.com/actionshot/wigwam-rock-n-smoke-shop as you can see in the shelf there is a bunch of cannibal corpse patches with the old logo, they look exactly like the official ones.

All of those patches ARE original Blue Grape Merchandising patches. None of them with the old logo are new in your link. There are stockpiles of these patches all over the world left over from the 90's so they are very easy to have access to. I know because I have that 1994 "The Bleeding" uncensored cover art Patch and the 1993 "Tom of the Mutilated" alternate cover art patch. I have seen these patches on TONS of sites. Plus, those are patches of the first four records. So,why wouldn't those ones have the old logo? It makes sense to me. That's how those patches where back then in the 1990's and that's how they are now. Basically, if it ain't broke then don't fix it. I really like "Gallery of Suicide", "Vile" etc but that logo they've used since 1996 is just lame as fuck (same goes with the logo Immolation has used since "Failures For Gods"...even though the music still kicks ass you can't beat the classic logo). But then again, Barnes owns the rights to the old logo because he is the one who created the old logo.

I'm actually a bit suprised they still have leftover ones from the 90s. I agree, they are patches from the first four records so why wouldn't they have the old logo? Well if go out and buy any of the albums, they will have the new logo on them, and if you buy any of the shirts they also have the new logo on it, so I was just curious why the patches still had the old logo. Oh well no complaints, im very happy with my hammer smashed face patch!

I agree with on the shirts and cd's. The problem with these "re-issue" shirts and cd's is that the colors where re-worked and they look too fucking bright. Plus, the overall size of the artwork on the re-issue shirts is like that of a poster flag. Bigger is not always better I say. The old CC shirts of the Barnes albums are much better than the new versions in terms of quality. Plus, Hot topic carries the new versions and thus leading to idiots that shouldn't be listening to death metal in the first place...you won't find an original Blue Grape Merchandising one in that cesspool of a store.
This is why I prefer old school CC merch and merch that is only available at certain shows or through the band. Thanks Hot Topic, Rockabilia, and the new so-called "Headbanger's Ball", look what you've done. Well, that's the world of really crappy corporate behavior for ya!

They're still great but I prefer Cannibal Corpse - Chris Barnes era, especially on Tomb of the Mutilated album.
