  8. Great! You unbelievably give great knowledge

    Thanks

  9. I really enjoyed your article, thank you for the list must have been a hard work.

    GREAT WORK!!!

  10. Very inspiring and great article :) loved it

  11. I like consistent logos like VW and GE. Companies that change too often are making bad attempts to reinvent the brand. Walmarta newest is a sad attempt to look cleaner and brighter. It looks like the pepsi logo tripped and fell

  12. wow it’s gr8 collection thanx

  13. This is really very interesting how logo changed overtime for these corporate companies.

    nice job.

  14. cool :)

  27. interesting how ford seemed to foretell the huge trend nowadays with that smooth glossy highlighted look. understandably, today’s versions are a bit more polished (for example, apple’s at the top of your list), but still intriguing that ford did it over 30 years ago (although maybe not all that surprising, given the industry). i guess fashion is never invented – it’s only reinvented. nice compilation, thanks!

  28. This was a great read! It was really interesting to see how the logos we see every day evolved. I love logo design.

  29. Nice list. Apparently, the most significant thing you’re missing is rudimentary knowledge of the English language.

  30. The GE logo has been known as “The Meatball” within GE for many years.

  32. Very enjoyable, however, the GE logo hardly changes between 34 and 03… Also, “in 1971, Folks at Kodak tryong to adds more complexity to the mark.” -horrible spelling and grammar.

  33. well, we can say that for google logo also. ;) it hardly changed since beginning. Isn’t it.

    Anyway, I like their logo but I am not pleased with their favicon. They could have done better job.

  34. Actually, the Volkswagen was Ferdinand Porsche’s idea. Hitler, who was aware of Porsche’s work in this area, provided the means for Porsche to realize an inexpensive car for the masses, which fit right in with the political atmosphere of the day. Porsche was pretty much apolitical, but was still jailed after the war for his association with the regime.

    Also, the KdF-wagen was called the “Type 1,” not the Beetle, which is one of the many nicknames it picked up over the years. The VW Bus is the Type 2, etc.

  36. Great post!

    Apple: Gets better and better

    Shell: The progression is impressive, its simplified more and more over time.

    Xerox: There’s been a lot of bad feedback regarding this new design, the symbol looks like its off some logo template site and the font is a little weird.

    BMW: perfect

    Nike: perfect

    IBM: Hurts my eyes a little, its a hard logo to work with as a result. Would’ve liked to see something better.

    Canon: perfect

    Google: nice progression, its one of those logo’s that can be displayed in this way without having to look all serious and corporate.

    Kodak: The more I look at the font the more I think it kinds looks like a camera, well done!

    Microsoft: Haven’t changed much since ’87, not much to say except I think its fine as it is

    VW: Perfection ++++

    Mastercard: I like the previous logo better.

    Firefox: The current logo looks great

    Pepsi: Looks like they were inspired by their rivals in the early days I feel. The ’73 version is the best out of all of them

    LG: looks good, not the easiest logo to work with.

    Mercedes-Benz: What an amazing progression, they continue to focus on elegance and prestige

    General Electric Company: nice logo, simple and clean

    Nokia: Current logo is friendly and quite nice

    Ford: I like the previous logo blue as the current one looks far too Web 2.0. The previous one as a whole looks way better.

    WALMART: Dont like it one bit. The yellow rays look strange and the font type is too plain.

  37. Your BMW logo timeline is incorrect. The logo listed as “70s and 80s” is actually the early BMW Motorsport division logo in the 70s and early-80s, prior to the adoption of the current three-color ‘///M’ design.

  38. The 70′s were a confusing time for many of us, even BMW

  39. Xerox themselves seem to have forgotten their pixely logo, so I can’t blame you. I’ve always liked this one:

  40. Max Weir – are you dumb. Don’t you think you are a bit serious to write all this blah blah. Whose gonna read it. Why so hype… Logo design is nothing more then lighting a candle. Anyone can do it.

  41. My ’98 Jetta GLX has that blue logo (that says since 2000) on both the manual and the black cloth thing the manual goes in.

    Actually, the first Apple logo was designed by one of the founders of Apple (Ronald Wayne), who at the time of designing was not aware of the fact that it would be used as the logo. He told that in the recently released documentary Welcome to Macintosh.

  44. Great work and well written. Maybe I found a mistake… on my 25 years old Canon I have an Logo thats not listet here.

  45. Pepsi logo still looks like the second to last one in some countries, actually. I am pretty sure I’ve never seen the last one.

  46. Hi

    That was very informative about the evolution of various corporate logos. Kudos to you and the great effort…..

    Thanks

    CM

  47. The BMW logo is really great example of logo that shouldn’t be changed much for a long time.

  48. There is no “kwa” sound in Japanese. The information that Japanese people pronounce it that way is thus incorrect. In fact, they never have pronounced Canon this way.

  49. great list!
    but afaik the mercedes logo now comes in plain white with the logo and the type separated … right?!

  50. i seem to recall reading somewhere that the missing piece in the apple logo does NOT represent a bite, but a dent (from where it hit newton’s head). that’s the connection to the original logo.

  51. In autumn of 1971, I was a junior at Roswell High in Roswell, New Mexico. Many times during my high school years I contributed graphic designs to various clubs, choral productions, the cheerleaders, drama club productions, etc. Roswell has always been a very conservative, Republican community, and some of the teachers thought it would be a very good fund raiser if I designed a license plate that the local town folk would enjoy displaying on their cars. In New Mexico, we have only one plate on the back of the vehicle, so you can put whatever you want on the front. I designed that ubiquitous elephant, that looks kind of like a mail box with a spout curving off the right side, which is the logo of the Republican party. Originally, I drew it with five staggered white stars within a field of blue, across the top, and red and white stipes across the bottom. The design these days has been simplified to solid blue on top and solid red on the bottom, but the basic shape of the elephant is still the same. These license plates were silk screened by the shop class and then sold by the DECA club. I was never paid one cent for my contribution, except I got plenty of thanks from everyone involved. The logo was immediately adopted by the Chaves County Republican party and was used all throughout the elections leading up to November 1972. When the elections of 1976 rolled around, it was the logo of the New Mexico Republican party. And then in 1980, when Reagan was challenging Carter for the presidency, it was the logo of the national GOP. My mom told me many times that I should get the elephant copyrighted, but being such a stoner as I was in those days, I watched many years fly by until I figured nobody would ever believe me if I attempted to proclaim this as my own invention. I live near Santa Fe now, and I’ve thought of traveling down to Roswell and inquiring at my old high school to see if one of these plates is still sitting in some dusty forgotten closet somewhere. I’ve been an artist, a sign maker, and a graphics designer all of these years, having always been self-employed. I’m 53 years old and I’ve never voted Republican.

  53. @Ryan Ozuas – Logo designing is a very hard and creative job as it needs hours of hardwork and days of thinking.

    @Edi – Very Nice link. I wonder how many hours they actually spent on making such video.

  54. the current Mercedes Logo is not correct. They switched to a simple 2D style star I think one year ago… they are running against the 3d-look of all car brands. look at the website of mercedes.

  56. You say: “If you visit the official Volkswagen site! then you cannot get this.”

    This is not true! Look at http://www.volkswagenag.com/vwag/vwcorp/content/de/the_group/history.html and visit the “Chronik” (currently only German but will be available in english too”. When you read the second part (1937-1945) you will even see Hitler mentioned «Für das von Ferdinand Porsche entwickelte Fahrzeug prägte Hitler den Begriff “KdF-Wagen”» (For the, car, developed by Ferdinand Porsche, Hitler “coined” the term “KdF-Wagen” (humble translation by me)).

    Besides this little polemic of yours, I like your collection. Thanks for it!

  57. “You can see this in the first of it’s kind GE logo.”

    That should be “its” (possessive, without the apostrophe).

  58. “‘ Nokia’ in Finnish means means a dark, furry animal… ”

    The things you learn about your mother tongue =/
    - Sorry folks, no furry animals connected to Nokia’s story. Nokia is just a village nearby Tampere.

  59. nice works and well written.

  60. The bit about how Microsoft was started is not correct. The programming language BASIC was created at Darthmouth College in 1964, a decade before Microsoft was founded. Gates & Allen implemented one version of it, but it was certainly not the first programming language for microcomputers.

  61. FYI: Steve Wozniak most certainly did NOT liquidate his share of Apple for $800, Ronald Wayne did.

  62. Nice post…thanks for compiling it!

    I just did heaps of research on Apple, and most sources agree that Apple is called Apple largely because it came ahead of Atari in the phone book (similar rationale was later applied to Amiga). The color logo was likely pointing to the fact that the Apple II had color, though the gay pride connection seems pretty plausible.

    As for slow sales…cut ‘em some slack, man! The Apple I was handbuilt! :P But I agree, that logo is pretty, uh, homely.

    Looking at Apple’s typography is interesting. They’ve only had three corporate typefaces, and the first one is super 80s looking :)

    Johnnie Walker, Coca Cola, Adidas

  233. I’ll never forget the Microsoft logo from the early 90s. Back then all of this stuff was new and the idea of typing on a blog wasn’t even a dream. The web consisted of what we could find on AOL. Great history lesson on logos, much appreciated.

  234. Very very cool post. love it.

  235. Cool logo examples thanks for the post

  236. Really a sequential way of introducing the precious knowledge to us ,good and memorable way of introducing these history.

    Keep going ….
    all the best

  237. I don’t know why people are impressed by things like this. I’m sure the assembler of this list spent a lot of time hunting down brand images, but it’s not worth it when accompanied by nothing but mindless conjecture, blatant innacuracies, and broken English. The only unifying element seems to be the childlike suggestibility of the author, as he’s ready to label the most recent version of every design either as ‘stylish’ or another banal, nontechnical, meaningless term. For an piece dealing with corporate identity, there’s a serious lack of intellectual curiousity, and even basic fact-checking, present here.

  247. Doesn’t the Pepsi logo look like the Air Korea logo? I also think it’s interesting how the older logos all tend to be more descriptive and the newer logos are more evocative. I wonder if that is because logos tend to be less descriptive these days or if companies as they get older tend to have less descriptive logos because they are not needed (everyone already recognizes them).

  248. The “new” Walmart logo as it appears on this page is not correct. This is a version of the logo that was not approved for usage, and should not be reflected as the new Walmart logo.

  249. I think the 1935 and 1953 Canon logos are reversed.

  250. It was very amazing and i learnt many new things from this

  251. ok excelent..

  262. Has anyone noticed just how many of the logos have evolved into the circular design – you have got to wonder if this is in response to globalisation, or if people just feel the circle is more holistic than any other symbol.

    Or maybe we are all going around the bend, lol.

  263. Thank you for all the very interesting information. Really well done! Can’t believe they put that creepy creature on the original Nokia logo!
