Books on travel written in the early 20th Century.

Older small cars that were designed to look big.(Nash Metroplitan, Plymouth Lancer, Mercury Meteor)

I've always liked company and sports logos. The iconography specifically chosen to represent a team or company...often in elegant fashion. (The Hartford Whalers used to have a great logo.)

About 40 years ago, the Anaheim Angels had hats with a tiny halo embroidered in the top. I loved that..they could have just had that and no letters in the front and it would have been cool.

Robertson's Marmalade until very recently used a little black fellow as an icon. (He was called Gollywog) It makes me sad that people found him offensive, and thus he had to go.

Foldgers or Hills Bros used to have an Turbaned and Robed fellow drinking coffee as their logo. Sadly it disappeared to.

Rambler cars used to have a stylized "R" (I love the name Rambler for a car...hell yeah) and it seemd in the '60s and '70's ever old person who owned on in Leisure World had a plastic rose on the Aeriel. (from the song)

Speaking of rambling....
