It is a pleasure to highlight another batch of creature-themed modernist logos designed by many greats in our field. Contributor Sandi Vincent kicked off the animal logo theme earlier this year. You can peruse that striking collection here.

And stay tuned as I will have additional animal-centric marks plus more up to bat over the next several weeks. These logos are sourced from Trade Marks & Symbols, Volume 2: Symbolical Designs, a terrific hardback set edited by notable Japanese graphic designer Yasaburo Kuwayama and published in 1973.
