The Logo Corner: Columbia Pictures, Inc. (Episode 6)

A long time coming. I hope you enjoy this latest episode. Happy Groundhog Day!

The usual excuses apply to this episode's lateness. But, I will make it a point to create more of these episodes over the rest of 2016. I want to make this a long-lasting series if I can help it. Luckily for all of you there will be plenty of logos to cover. We have yet to talk about all the television logos, for god's sake!

In this episode, we peer into the interesting history of Columbia Pictures, and its associated logo. The logo may have remained almost constant throughout its history, but its subtle changes are certainly something to behold. From its humble beginnings with dated moire effects, to its more ambitious days with the sunburst, and to its iconic status with the majestic modern variant, this logo certainly has a distinctive edge to it. It is quite possibly one of my favorite logos of all time. Perhaps I should make a list...? Let me know!

Thanks for watching this episode, and thanks for celebrating one year of The Logo Corner with me! Here's to another year of its success! Your support is duly appreciated!
