That’s a cool sticker.  Where did you purchase it ? Ask the person you bought it from? Where did he find it ....etc.  That would help a lot to narrow down where and what Dealership it came from. I googled the name and referenced it with Empi and Vw and nothing came up

I bought it here in Spain, the seller was not a VW person, they had no idea what it was or where it came from  ???

If you type “Gerald Langlois VW” into Facebook, a page pops up referencing a “1973 contest by Mars Chocolates to win two VWs specially equipped EMPI for the young people by Gerald Langlois who was a Belgian racer”. There is a cartoon picture of a Beetle etc.  VintageVW.be is the FB group, however you have to join the group to see more posts.

After further review I notice some irregularities at both sides of the sticker where this racers name is, can this be an overlay? It would need to be examined, either way cool sticker. AA
