I love logo design, but honestly, unearthing the background has brought much more joy. It's fascinating to see much of the mid-century logo design were expressions significant post-war change such as service/product diversification and modernisation to industrial and managerial practices.

Merchandise has definitely helped keep them visible. Walked by the Rolling Stones shop on Carnaby street the other day, definitely supports your point.

IMO the Rolling Stones' logo is one reason for their continued popularity.

I'd love a category for design, but we need more writers!
Coolio! A very worthy topic to nudge me to think about . . . .
Makes me think a different way about issues I disregarded.
Right!!!!! Like the darkest corners of my mind I’ve never turned on the light!
I love this IBM logo. It's amazing how a simple picture can say a thousand words.
Can he look at an Amazon Prime logo and not immediately think of Peyronie's Disease?
