Wine and Brandy(ing)

I'm quite enamored with some of Manasseh Langtimm's branding work. The Black Hand, a series of wine bottles based on the Italian extortion racket, would definitely stand out at a liquor store, with Frank Miller-esque graphics, retro newsprint fonts, embossing and beautiful detailing on the wax seals.

Langtimm's proposal for the rebranding of the Cleveland Browns really harkens back to the ole' pigskin days, with a vowel-less, simplified typeface and rustic colors. In his own words, "it is a return to a less glamorous time—no fake shiny metal, bubble letters or sparkly jewels, just football."

...it is a return to a less glamorous time - no highfalutin' vowels, just consonants.

Digging those bottles, on the other hand.
