The famous Coca-Cola logo was created by John Pemberton’s bookkeeper, Frank Mason Robinson, in 1885. Robinson came up with the name and chose the logo’s distinctive cursive script. The typeface used, known as Spencerian script, was developed in the mid-19th century and was the dominant form of formal handwriting in the United States during that period.

Rob Janoff designed the original rainbow Apple logo in 1977 when he was working for the agency Regis McKenna as an art director. The only direction he got from Steve Jobs: “don’t make it cute”. Out of the two presented options one with and one without the bite fortunately Jobs chose the one with more personality.
