    Hi All,
    Does anyone have the London Borough of Richmond Upon Thames Logo?

    Hope you all had a relaxing Easter break!

    Cheers

    Johnny S 🙂

    Sorry I cant help with the logo Johnny, but have you tried asking the council for it?
    When I had to do some signs which had to display the fife council logo I asked the council and was surprised how helpful they were, they gave me a copy of the logo on disk in ai format along with a document which stated colours and sizes that the logo had to be shown at.

    Martin, your properly right,
    You would be surprised about what equipment councils have, most have so type of sign/print shop.
    Ricmond council are quite big with plenty of dosh…
    Good luck!

    Here you go Johnny

    And you’d be surprised, Richmond council do have a sign “shop” they even have a gerber edge 2, yet for some reason they don’t let their other departments know about it. I do quite a bit of work for the transport and environmental protection departments. I had a request for a small run of stickers printed in 3 colours a classic gerber edge job, so i said to the guy it was a too small run to screen print and it would be best to get them done digital, i said i didn’t have the facilities to do that here but could get a price for him. He said fine, then i said the council have a gerber it would be cheaper to do it in house, the guy wasn’t worried at all, he didn’t want the interdepartment hassles, i still got the work.

    Thanks guys, I’ll keep that in mind next time.
    And once again thanks Lorraine, it may be that I need a direct link to your computer as it seems you have every logo I need!

    Many thanks

    Johnny 😀

    P.S I’ll be picking your brains on some screen printing kit in a couple of weeks. 😮

    Lucky, lucky, lucky.

    My experience of councils is that they have nothing usable. We did a job for Westminster Council and all my contact could come up with was the nastiest and smallest jpeg you can imagine. I digitised it as best I could but the jpeg was so bad I wasn’t sure if my work was spot on. Didn’t get any compaints though. 😀

    One of our clients supplies road sweeping machines to all sorts of local authorities so if its alright with you Lorraine I will also keep a copy of the Richmond logo in case I need it in the future.

    This has also taught me a lesson. Before spending hours digitising a logo, ask on here first!
