4.0 out of 5 stars Great Logo's! , July 25, 2006

By	M. Sylvester - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Letterhead & Logo Design 8 (Paperback)

This is a great book with great logo's in it. I was captivated as I flipped through the pages. However, it does not give you any information as to how a particular design company came up with a clients logo. It is strictly just logo designs and nothing more. But facinating work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspirational, February 6, 2007

By	Roger Bauer "http://smbconsultinginc.com" (Louisville, KY) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Letterhead & Logo Design 8 (Paperback)

I bought this book to stimulate creative ideas in order to develop a new logo and stationery for our company. I'm not sure if everyone will rave about our new logo as that is a matter of individual taste, but I believe it's a 100% improvement over the old one.

This book did a great job of inspiring new ideas and reaffirming personal tastes. Plus, looking at neat logos, business cards, and letterhead in one compilation can spark casual conversation amongst strangers, friends and family since everyone has an opinion, right? For that reason alone, this would make an excellent coffee table book.
