LOGO RIP

Logo R.I.P.
Author: The Stone Twins
Introduction: Gert Dumbar

Logo R.I.P. is a commemoration of logos that were once an integral part of our ocular landscape but are now deemed defunct - due to either mergers, acquisitions, bankruptcy or rebranding strategies. This book, compiled and designed by the Stone Twins, is a dignified final send-off for an international selection of graphic icons from the previous century. Some are real design classics, whilst others cost millions to be implemented only to be replaced within a year or two. Featured on headstones, each logo also has its own 'obituary' at the end of the book: a farewell tribute with a brief history and significant facts. The foreword is by Gert Dumbar. The book is beautifully finished in the style of a biblical hymnbook full of swan songs.
