T O P I C R E V I E WDavid CareyI've always liked some of the old space-themed logos and designs from the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo era, whether on hardware or ephemera.Here's a little Command Module oscillator assembly that I picked up mostly for the graphics. Likewise the ashtray from the Space Satellite Hotel. Rocketdyne logo is simple but effective, and I think most attractive in the thermoformed red plastic rocket covers like this example from Scott Schneeweis' collection.Any other favorites? tnperriEpcot's Mission: SPACEBA002The McDonnell Douglas logo, because it combines a rocket and a supersonic passenger transport. This logo reminds me of a time of optimism, of belief in technical progress, when it was possible to dream of going to the moon and supersonic flight and those dreams would even become a reality, a time just before those dreams of endless technical progress would be stifled by the harsh reality of economic sense.music_spaceHow about this one? The graphic iconography hasn't changed so much since the 1960s. If it ain't broke...onesmallstepHow about the Tomorrowland logo in use at all Disney theme parks (one more under construction in Shanghai, due to open later this year)? Planets orbiting around a center have been used as well as a representation of an atom and Mickey Mouse spacewalking next to a rocketship.LiemboI love this one from Bendix. I did my best to reproduce it based on two low resolution images that I've managed to find of it. I would love to produce it as an embroidered emblem, but I would have to work with Honeywell as they absorbed Bendix in 1983. I took some artistic license with the rendering of the astronauts and colors, as I've not found a color example.
