Did you ever wonder where the Midwest Karate Logo came from?
This logo was developed for Midwest Karate Clubs and me in 1970 by Mr. Ken White. Mr. White was enrolled in a Commercial Arts course and photographed me for the project. {photograph seen above}. He then designed the logo from the photo and it has been used by myself since that time.

The logo and (or parts of it/the kick) has been used by non-affiliated groups in various provinces (without permission), but, knowing the history of the logo, you can inform these people of its background.
