Re: National Airlines (the original) corporate identity ownership

0687404 I was wondering who is owning the rights for that corporate ID since the airline was bought and merged into Pan Am 40+ years ago, which then went belly up 30 years ago shortly after Delta took over most of their trans-Atlantic network.
