Saul Bass Logos
Posted by Scott
James White has posted a very nice collection of Saul Bass logos at his site, Signalnoise.com (also very nice). Going through this list, I am pretty amazed. I knew Bass did a few of them, but some of those are big surprises. Link

Saul Bass redesigned the Exxon logo in 1981 (although he just sort of evolved it)

December 15, 2008 at 5:28 pmThe rectangular Exxon logo with the blue strip at the bottom and red lettering with the two “X’s” interlinked together was designed by noted industrial stylist Raymond Loewy in 1966.
It would be interesting dedicate Logo Gallery to this designer. It was the author of some logos such as Spar, Shell, BP, First US Mail Logo, Nabisco, Lu, First United Logo, Lucky Strike, American Oil Brands …
