Re: Dynamo; the Stasi Sports Organization
Also, Phil, the DDR's Dynamo stands apart from the rest in the rendering of the "D" itself. On the East German Dynamo, the "D" is, more or less, a simplified letterform Germanic "D". All the others are, more or less, a cursive "D" in the form we were all taught in school- note the loop at the bottom. Where the Russian, Ukrainian and Hungarian (Dozsa) differ from the Romanian "D" is the "hitch" in the middle of the descender (first line from top to bottom forming the "D")- the Romanian lacks this. I'm sure this is much more than anyone wanted to know, but typography was a major field of study when I was pursuing that Commercial Art degree.:D
