Labor Day Time Out. What else was I doing?

Well, for one thing, I was making toys for my kids. You can see more at http://giambarba.com/toys.html

kyotobos

I did this logo for the Boston-Kyoto Sister City Committee. It uses a black or a white background. You can see more of this kind of thing at http://giambarba.com/bizimage.html

I also did a corporate identity program for Tonka Corporation and a product identity as well for Tonka Toys. There's more at http://giambarba.com/bizimage.html

A portion of an original silk screen print that I first ran in 1962 but resurrected as a poster for peace in 2002. Click image to enlarge. I'm using at present for my splash page at http://giambarba.com

I'll get back to Polaroid stuff after Labor Day. Consider this a brief interlude or a way of understanding my thought processes as I tried to solve the design challenges I had to deal with every time Polaroid came up with a new product or family of products. This print is the result of the same thinking as the design solution for the first Polaroid sunglass product identity, also 1962.
