illwauk Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Note that it says BOYS sizes. Reading comprehension...If your self-esteem is so low that you have to condescend to strangers online over what was an obvious oversight, then I really feel bad for ya fam... in all fairness you just called everybody fatINCLUDING myself... which should've been a dead giveaway to the tongue-in-cheekness of what I said.

totc Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 I wonder if this was an early Japanese influence on SoCal sporting culture. Cutesy logos are all a part of Japanese baseball:http://www.logoserver.com/JapanBL.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

senatorscottie Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Hi all.I too have an interest in the Laker giraffe, I'm the one who posted the scan to uniwatch. If you'd like the largest view of that scan, I have it hosted at:http://www.burnsshoes.com/temp/lakersgiraffe.jpgIf anyone needs a closer view, (like you're planning on creating an image or something) let me know, and I'll see if I can find a higher quality scanner...-Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quillz Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Maybe the giraffe should be brought back today as a secondary/alternate logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TruColor Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I don't know...as a former L.A. resident myself, maybe they should pull something prehistoric - from the La Brea tar pits.

lettercult Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 mattb6, no prob.yeah, some of his work is zoo-y, but he certainly is putting the time in to get betterso can't do nothing but tip the hat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lettercult Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 that said, it's always a good idea for each letter pair to have the same amount of space between them (volume of negative space, not distance)and his E-R for example is not close to the A-K.

nash61 Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Based on what I've seen here's an initial attempt at recreating the logo. I expect to see several concepts in the next couple of weeks including the girafe into the Lakers' logos.I'm glad to see someone stick his neck out like that...POTD nomination from me.Redacted.

Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.
