I came across this Flickr collection called Retro Logo Goodness. I think, as the name suggests, the collector features logos with a retro aesthetic, not necessarily old logos. In fact, I’m not even sure that all of them are logos for real companies…

Anyway, I’m a bit of a sucker for the bold and minimal, like those vintage Scandinavian logos I posted a while back, so the ones that really stood out to me are the monograms where letters are represented as a unified symbol:

Kimberly-Clark Corporation

1R Radiators

Marcona Corporation

Keystone International Inc.

Barkow Petroleum

Channel 7 (ABC)

The Growth Fund of America

United Engineers

Sierra Corporation

Applied Power
