their links with Spain to the Hispanic population. 1955 was a much cleaner iteration of the logo, with the ‘Shell’ text matching the rest of the color scheme. By 1961 a red background had been added, which took away from the starkness of the logo. 1971 was a wholesale redesign, cutting out the clutter. The man to thank for that is Raymond Loewy. Since then there has been minor tinkering – mostly with levels and richness and depth of color, but also with the addition of text – but Loewy’s logo is…

The Honeymooners I only became familiar with this most loveable and likeable serried The Honeymooners long after the last episode had aired on September 22, 1956.
