Logo RIP, a commemoration of dead logotypes

Logo RIP, a commemoration of dead logotypes. Where design nerds go to mourn old logos, including Enron, Paul Rand’s work for UPS, and the swastika.

Matter's New Haven Railroad logo isn't dead! I see it every time I go to Union Station here.

(Although, admittedly, it isn't on the trains anymore: now they're Metro-North and Amtrak.)

I'm sure that logo is dead, they just haven't got around to buying new equipment with the new logo or it is there just for nostalgic reasons.

I've loved this site for quite a while. The BOAC Speedbird is certainly one of the best.
