Milton Glaser designed this in 1977. The thing I like most about this piece is its simplicity and more importantly it's icon. This one design has become an international icon. Anyone who has traveled to NYC as a tourist, including myself, has one of these shirts, hats ect... This logo is, and has been the symbol for NY tourism and NYC itself. Many other brands have taken this original image and made it with their logo. An example of this is vineyard vines who has a style of shirt that says I (whale) something. It blows me away that such a simple design could become an icon.
