Posted in Identity & branding, Retail environments by zigideluxe on 20/09/2012

Matchbox with bold graphics“Your penny is worth more at the Cooperative supermarket” is a great slogan, and the graphics on these match boxes are even better. Not sure from which period this is ( I would guess late 70’s early 80’s), but I wish retail graphic design would more often be this convincingly simple, minimal, bold & confident (even if it looks a bit communist).

Cheap & cheerful
