Art & Inspiration Vintage Emblems & logos

Vintage Logos - Automotive & other commercial applications have a style & quality typography rarely seen these days. Recently I stumbled across a site that has quite a nice collection.
chromeography.com
Got any favorites?

 

the idiots who design new cars could take a lesson from the old days, you can look right at the emblem on a new car and still not know what kind of car it is.

 

It also helps that cars then actually had names, not just random collections of letters & numbers.

 

Mid-50's MoPar overdrive script looks good to me...


Some may consider it dull & common, but also 30's Ford V8 logo appeals to me:

And of course: The Buick Eight!

 

A couple from the local yard that is no more. HRP

 

A couple more from chromeography.com :
