A book worth reading
Marks of Excellence by Per Mollerup
Finding the roots of trademarks in heraldry, potter’s marks, monograms,
and other such ancient devices, this book traces the history of the
corporate visual lexicon and produces a taxonomy of the commercial age.
An alphabetical section covers motifs from animals to waves, with short
definitions and analyses beautifully complemented by daringly cropped
and crisply photographed images. Pictures of this quality and interest
would steal the show in most volumes, but the text stands up well to
the challenge of images that gain force because of the familiarity of
their subjects (corporate trademarks), and the unusual sense that the
book’s context lends to them. Marks of Excellence is a worthwhile exploration at the modern language of ownership.
