Another case of Mandela effect maybe. The multi-verse theory

Re: Ok what's this, driving me nuts
Still convinced it from an album but may have to concede it may not be. Someone suggested napkin design which I though extremely possible. I feel it was highly ubiquitous at the time,
Interestingly enough it never actually comes up if you google Memphis Design (none of which trigger album cover memories or much else for that matter). So may just be a knock off of one of theirs. Everyone seems to recall it so the skateboard design ain't going to do it, TV ident is unlikely too.

Re: Ok what's this, driving me nuts
More I think about it the more I like the napkin theory..you know the sort of thing. The stuff you got wih a slice of cake or sausage roll at parties in the eighties. You'd probably see it on supermarket shelves too every week, even your local store maybe. 
They're saying it was a hoax now but it can't be. I know I remember the design, it doesn't just feature on that skateboard, and the underside at that.

Re: Ok what's this, driving me nuts
Yes, not the first to put that forward. It does use a lot of Memphis design but not the above that I can see. Plus I'm not sure I'd remember so vividly an image only on screen for a second or two

Re: Ok what's this, driving me nuts
I'm sticking with the paper napkin for the time being. The fact no one can remember a source probably means it was a transitory medium anyway. Something that was around a lot in the 80's but left no record.
