Vintage Microsoft ‘PacMan’ Logo Mug, Collectible

Vintage Collectible Microsoft ‘PacMan’ Logo Mug for Coffee Tea In 1987, Microsoft came up with another round of redesigning its logo. This time, the letters looked a lot softer and round. They also appeared thicker, showing the Company’s confidence in its computer business. But a little slash between the letters ‘O’ and ‘S’ made the logo so attractive and memorable. It conveyed motion and speed. Also, the slash emphasized the ‘Soft’ part of the Company’s name. But the slash created a mouth shape that resembled the then-popular video game figure Pac-Man. So, this Microsoft logo redesign was nicknamed the Pac-Man logo. The designer picked Helvetica font in italic for the logo. This logo represents the Company’s confidence and assertion in its computer business and market field. Therefore, the logo proved to be a durable design, and the Company continued with it for 25 years! You can notice that no elements other than the font are involved in creating this simple logo. One of the advantages of such logos for small businesses is that their logo cost is minimal. The printing cost also is minimum for lack of colors. The Microsoft Pac-Man logo design remained the same until 2012! Microsoft Certified Solution Provider program was launched from 1992 - 2000.
