A lithograph company letterhead by Robert Brownjohn that pairs three small, line-drawn golfers with spare typography to give a commercial stationery design a witty, distinctive identity.
What strikes you is the vast white field interrupted only by a tiny, centered vignette—three crisp, almost cartoonish golfers above the firm's name and address, and a slim line of directors' names at the bottom—creating a quiet, playful tension between image and type.
Produced in the 1960s, it exemplifies Brownjohn's blend of humor and modernist restraint and helped recast corporate stationery as a site for visual invention and personality in graphic design.
