LogoArchive's Research Archive Issue 7
This week, Kodak, Matsuya, Eastern Airlines and Wave Radio, nice.
Today, in Issue 7 of LogoArchive’s Research Archive, I managed to find some images of the Eastman Kodak brand manual, we have some colour graphics for Wave radio, concepts for Japanese department store Matsuya and assets from the Eastern Airlines’ brand identity. Last week on Logo Histories we covered the story of Saul Bass’ ALCOA logo, and next week, will share the Expo 70 logo, illustrated with 15 concepts created by renowned Japanese designers Ikko Tanaka, Yusaku Kamekura and Kazumasa Nagai. Subscribe here and receive this straight to your inbox on Tuesday. Coming later this year, Gerstner’s Shell, Japanese Railways and Citibank.
