He designed corporate logos, such as the UPS brown shield, the many variations of "IBM" (solid, reversed, small, outline, thick outline, nine stripes, 11 stripes, etc.) and I believe he did the AT&T death star (in about a dozen forms). The UPS logo was one of his earliest works; later he came to regret making the type geometric and the knot freehand, but the company wouldn't let him revise it. (b) THAT BASTARD BOB HOPE STILL ISN'T DEAD!!!!!!! I repeat: I claim credit in advance for the impending death of Bob Hope. Fred Flintstone will run him over in his car, while on his way to see Dolores Hopediamondrock at the U.S.O.-rock show. -- K. THEN THE FUN ALMOST BEGINS!
