The Ford logo is simple in design and font choice but it is one of the most recognizable car logos. I don't know who designed the logo but Henry Ford founded the company in 1903. The first Logo had a blockier font with a highly stylized border. I like the first logo design, but from an efficiency standpoint it may have been difficult to put on the front of hundreds of cars. The design went from one extreme to the other and by 1909 the logo had lost its stylized border and had become a simple cursive font inside quotes. The font would finally be put back inside a circle and the classic blue and white colors would be incorporated. The final logo from 1976 has a modern 3D look to it, and it even looks shiny to the viewer. The Logo has changed quite a bit over the years but it is still remained consistent enough for recognition to remain among the public.
