  1. LOVE Ray Charles letterhead, probably because of the wit using the music scale as lines, the rest are nice, but they don’t make you think.

    Robert Brownjohn must of been a shoe salesman in former life to sell that his clients letterhead needed his name on it. Brilliant.

  2. I love that these designs are all about ideas. Must check out that link, thanks David.

  3. Thanks for the link—some very formal, some very funny, some just make you want to think. One of my favorites was the Harpo Marx letterhead. Not everyone can get away with a letterhead like that :)

  4. Hey its an awesome collection, i like Muhammad Ali’s and Paul Rand’s.

  5. I like Ray Charles, really distinctive with the music sheet and choice of color! Muhammad Ali’s and Paul Rand’s were both simple and elegant which kind of fits them too.
