Letterheads – Past and Present

Nicole Phillips — Fri, 28 Jan 2011 22:53:33 +0000

Letterheads… you know, that piece of paper people use to represent themselves, or their company via snail mail or fax. Sure, not too many people actually use them in 2011, (atleast in actual print format), but I do think they’re making a comeback, along with letter writing, but that’s a whole other topic of interest that needs to be discussed in the near future.

This wonderful little gem of a website shows off letterheads from the 1900’s, right through to the 80’s and into the 2000’s. It’s a great source of inspiration if you feel like your letterhead designs are in need of a refresh.

Ever wonder what Marylin Monroes Letterhead looked like? Or Dr. Suess?

Cowie and Fox recently created a High School and College targeted Milk Campaign called Milk Slam. For 2010/2011 we went for a simple and clean graphic. Eye catching neon colours and use of pop culture icons are sure to be a hit with the kids these days.

I’ve come across a recent design trend. It’s a very clean, simple, modern banner graphic. There’s a beautiful shop in Gastown using this in their logo. (Old Faithful Shop)

Okay so we all know that moustache are super over done these days, they’re pretty much everywhere, along with beards, but I just had to share these with you since I thought these were absolutely brilliant.
