The History Of The Forbes Logo
Forbes Magazine has withstood the test of time and survived the Great Depression, the Second World War, and the birth of a new millennium to emerge as one of the most influential business publications in the world. Today, they receive over 150 million website visits and reach more than 5 million print readers each month.
The world has changed drastically since the first edition of Forbes magazine hit shelves, and so has the brand’s logo. As a purveyor of words and ideas, Forbes has consistently chosen a simple wordmark to represent their business, though they have been unafraid to experiment with the style to help them stay relevant throughout the decades.
