Western Cold War Firm Logos (Defense & Engineering)
This is a promised follow-up for the Soviet tech logos post from a couple of weeks back. Here I’ve redrawn a selection of Western firms from roughly the same period (1960s-1980s). The primary focus here is on electronics, defense and engineering firms which were in some way connected with military contracting during that period of the Cold War. Some logos will be quite familiar (such as Motorola’s famous 1960 logo) and others will be a little more obscure and hopefully more interesting.
As with the Soviet logo experience, these have been redrawn from old documents and pixelated bitmaps on the web, so there may be some minor differences with original form. Vector files are included below each thumb, feel free to download and correct if you notice any.
