Mehhh!.....
I can live with large logos like that, as long as I get tan sidewalls, modern tread compound and a fresh, new, SAFE tire out of it!
We sure do not want to suggest to anyone that a 30 year old NOS tore is acceptable because it has discreet logos that will look appropriate on their C&V bike..... for a wall hanger, yes, but to ride on nooooo!
