Sharp logo and symbol, meaning, history, PNG
- Meaning and history 1912 – 1960 The old versions of the Sharp logo actually do not differ that much from the current one.
- In some periods of its history, the company used a black wordmark on the white background, but for most of the time, the logo featured a very bright and eye-catching shade of red.Also, there were periods when the wordmark was given between two red stripes.
- This is probably the best-known old logo.
- The glyphs imitate a calligraphic script with varying widths of the strokes.
- The glyphs, however, are not connected, as they typically are in a cursive script.
- The “S” has an extended top end, which stretches above the “a” and “h” and finishes above the “r.” The wordmark is underlined.
- While this might have been a pretty decent design in the era, when people wrote with ink pens, the company eventually had to replace it with a more modern, minimalistic logo.
- 1960 – Today The current version of the Sharp logo has been in use for several decades.
- Actually, the shape of the letters has been modified, yet these alterations has been so subtle that it’s hard to detect them.
- But unlike the previous logo, the current one comprises only the company name, while the red stripes below and above the lettering, as well as the frame, are gone.
- In 1997-2004, the company used the tagline “Be sharp,” which was placed under a black horizontal line below the logo.
- The “S” looks the same as in the regular logo.
- Font The typeface seen in the Sharp logo seems pretty straightforward and minimalistic, and yet, it has its unique features.
- The letters look somewhat stretched horizontally and flattened.
