Some very nice scans of 1960’s and 1970’s Scandinavian logos from Oliver Tomas’s Flickr. As great as these logos are, it’s always amazing how much better things look when scanned from a well printed page. The texture and imperfect edges really take it to the next level.

These graphics make me think of the smell of old library books from that era. Does anyone else ever sniff old books and album covers from time to time, or is it just me?

Nice work! Agree with you Scott about the scanned textures.

Out of interest, what scanner do you use?

Mark C. – You ain’t alone son. You ain’t alone… Just ask Greg.

Only a true Dane would offer such a post – Tak! I, too, love the and appreciate the simplicity in Scandinavian design.
