Company logo is usually well thought and designed and sometimes has its secret

Company logo is literally the symbol of the company. Usually every company meditate on this to make the best fit company logo.
Company logo is directly connected to the image of the company.
If you see a half eaten apple, it reminds you of the Apple Inc..
If you see ✔ sign, maybe it will reminds you of Nike.

And many company logos often have their secrets.
For example, let's take a look at the logo mark of "Toblerone" that is a chocolate company at Switzerland.

Toblerone is based on Switzerland. Specifically Bern.
Bern is also known as " A city of bear", thus there is a white bear drawn in this logo.

7-Eleven’s logo / The last "n" of eleven is small letter

Take a look at this logo carefully.
Even though the size is almost the same, the last "n" is written in the small letter.

The reason of this is unclear, because there are no written documents or records for this.
Let me introduce 2 several possible reasons for this.
1. The first possible reason for this is that the wife of the founder advised her husband to use small letter "n" on account of the beauty of the design.
Other "ELEVE" parts are the combination of straight lines.
Therefore she might think that curved design of "n" would make the entire logo looks even better.
2. The second possible reason for this is that trademark right problem.
"7 ELEVEN"'s trademark right might have already be taken by somebody and forced to change something. And ended up making "n" small letter.

Anyway, even though I see 7-eleven everyday in the city, I did not notice it until now.
Did you know it already??
