«"Letterhead and Logo Design 6" is a great addition to the library of any graphic artist. Tonality, shading, and shadow really come into their own as integral design elements in this volume with a brilliant design (page 42) from Emanuel Barbosa for Vector XXI (...), which is perhaps my favorite of all showcased designs in the book.»
