The US Bicentennial logo

In honor of the election, let's all take a moment to remember one of the best logos of all time, the US Bicentennial logo from 1976:

The logo was designed by Bruce N. Blackburn, who also designed the famous NASA "worm" logo. There's a good chunk of the logo's standards manual available online too. It's worth perusing, especially if you're into design.
