Condolence book for the passing of PTT Post

This logo is really crap, it looked totally outdated after a couple of years in service. The new one is equally crap, in fact nothing good has come out of that studio for many years - Dumbar, retire now!

On my regular trips to Holland, this ubiquitous identity was a revelation. I admired it's playfulness in a sector that is very often bland, repetitive and cliched.

The rebranded Dutch postal service (TPG Post) looks crap!! I can't believe it was designed by the same studio... what's going on Mr. Dumbar?

Dumbar's 'pic-a-mix' identity was great!! It was so adventurous, intelligent and jolly... 'was a major inspiration when I was a graphic design student. R.I.P.

This logotype should have had 'return to sender' on it!

The real strength of the PTT Corporate Identity was in the applications. The exuberance, energy, and experimentation was something to behold. It was a remarkable solution: Studio Dumbar you’ll never walk alone!!

But, it doesn't do anything. It just sits there. There is no movement of sprit. Bland and lifeless. Glad it's gone.

Why should a logo be confined to a top corner, why should it be a stand alone? This PTT identity was fantastic - it allowed freedom in all it's applications. God bless her!

Never liked this logotype or its highly praised applications. It turned the visual landscape of The Netherlands into a kind of toytown. Good Riddance!
