The Chase Manhattan logo was developed in the 1960s and is an arbitrary mark based on Modernist design principles. The logo consists of interlocking trapezoids and, as a testament to the integrity of its design, has remained relatively unchanged, surviving multiple company mergers since its inception. – Excerpt from a book by Ryan Hembree titled The Complete Graphic Designer.
