Logo evolution: Le Coq Sportif
We have all heard of the athletic rooster, or as it is more famous – Le Coq Sportif. The triangular (in most cases) logo with the rooster can be seen on variety of shoes, shorts, t-shirts and other sports equipment. Whereas the French company producing sports clothing originated back in 1882, the first...
Moskvich logotypes
May be most of you know one of the symbols of the communism – the russian car – Moskvich. Some photos of this Moskvich 408 Coupe ( very rare – they say there are only 2 cars like this in the world ) have inspired me to find pictures of different Moskvich logotypes. The badges on...
Michelin Logo in vintage posters
It is one of the two largest tire manufacturers in the world along with Bridgestone. French tire company Michelin has been around for a very long time. This is probably why their pudgy white mascot Bibendum is now intrinsically part of cycling graphic design. We are all familiar with his layered tire appearance, but...
Obama 2012 Campaign Logo
This is the official Obama 2012 campaign logo. No surprise that they are sticking to the logo form the previous campaign. After all, it worked out pretty well for the previous campaign. I’ve read somewhere that the used font is called Gotham Serif. I was wondering what the logo would look like if the stroke was...
3 Official Vintage Heroin Logos
Heroin is a very dangerous and addictive drug. But there was a time when it was prescribed for cough. The manufacturer was Bayer ( the company that invented the Aspirin ) and they were selling it between 1897-1904 in Germany. Later it was banned, of course.

A new coffee table-topper from Chronicle Books, Beer: A Genuine Collection of Cans , peers into the 1,400-plus collection of beer can-enthusiast John Russo and presents nearly 500 of...
The First American Book On How To “Select” A Successful Logo
Published in 1947, the Textile Brand Names Dictionary was devised as a simple resource for those entering the textile business.

So, in the...

Vintage logo designs by Stefan Kanchev : over 160 pages of great designs [PDF]
A lot of things could be said about my favorite logo designer : Stefan Kanchev (1915-2001). The most important thing of all is that he was a great talent. Unfortunately, as many other great artists, he didn’t become world famous because he was working “behind” the Iron Curtain. In the first world exhibition...
