logos

 
 
1. Color Reproduction Options
The logo should always appear in black or blue (PMS2925C). Use white when placed over a solid color or a photo with dark colors.

 

 

 
 
2. Size Reproduction Limits
In order to retain the quality of The Alleghenies signature, the logo should not appear smaller than one inch wide. This meant to maintain the legibility of “THE” and the “TM”.

 

 
 
3. Minimum Space Requirements
Maintain a consistent margin of clear space around the logo at all times. Clear space is equivalent to the height of the “A” in the logo.

Grey represents area to be kept clear.

 

 
 
4. Rules For Theme Usage
The theme should not appear seperately from the signature. Never change the themes size seperate from the logo. Never move the theme to a different location in relation to the logo.
