Speedo sticker (no date)

In the 1990s, the logo of Australian swimwear brand Speedo used tightly spaced caps from Baker Signet. (Yes, that’s the same typeface as used in the old LDS Church logo.) It later made way for an all-lowercase wordmark with boxy oblique sans serif letterforms, while the boomerang was maintained.
