Dear Russ and Brad, I'm not sure how many compliments you get on your corporate crest, coat-of-arms, heraldry, etc. I think more people should adopt them. My first company logo was based on my own family crest. My grandfather was a blacksmith -- and every man before him. In Portuguese, "Ferreira" - my birthname means "iron worker". Similar but more famous in German is "Eisenhower". Pls. see image 1 Perhaps at another luncheon you will allow me to expound further on its imagery of the sword in the stone anvil, the Guardians of the Holy Grail and whatnot. Among the most widely recognized images in the world are a set of simple photographs from the Apollo 11 Moon landing:, Neil Armstrong's foot print & Buzz Aldrin facing the American flag. Pls. see image 2 Among the most effective design elements I have gathered from the KIDZONE galleries is the use of a child's handprint. Another image that has stuck in everyone's consciousness is that moment at President Kennedy's funeral when his son "John-John" saluted his father's casket. I have combined all of these elements and emotions into the following sketch -- it should speak for itself. Pls. see image 3 "A little child shall lead them..." Best!
