General Motors Logo
The Mark of Excellence is a former trademark of General Motors Corporation. It was first introduced at GM's pavilion at the 1964 New York World's Fair. The logo consisted of the original "GM" logo with the phrase "Mark of Excellence" at the bottom. As a decal, it was installed on the doorjambs of General Motors' vehicles beginning in 1966. This logo also was stamped on the release buttons of seat belt buckles on GM vehicles from 1967 until 1996, as well as being stamped onto the ignition and door keys from 1969 up until 2002. Originally turquoise, the color was changed to a royal blue in 1968. The "Mark of Excellence" was the subject of the first case considered by the National Advertising Review Board, in 1972. The NARB ruled that the mark was not being used in a manner that constituted false advertising, but warned that, given GM's record of product recalls, the slogan could be seen as deceptive if it became a primary theme of GM's auto advertising. The phrase "Mark of Excel ...

The immense fair covered on half the park, with numerous pools or fountains, and an amusement park with rides near the lake. However, the fair did not receive official support or approval from the Bureau of International Expositions (BIE).
