The Nebraska Antique Farming Association is an organization dedicated to promoting, collecting and preserving historic farm machinery. Tractors have long been the heart and soul of farming operations. Inspiration was taken from the old cast iron tractor seats, some of which had strong typographical configurations. With the name of the organization forged into the logo itself, it allows the organization to pay homage to their rich history while also providing a strong, memorable treatment. Design a logo for the Nebraska Antique Farming Association. This organization's mission is dedicated to the promotion and preservation of farm machinery. Our inspiration came from studying various vintage farm implements. The tractor rules the farm and so we decided to use the old cast iron tractor seats as the basis for our logo. Quite often the tractor seats were designed to promote the manufacturer's name in the seat. We designed ours to do the same in promoting the Nebraska Antique Farming Association. The association is now busy finding ways to infuse the logo on other brand and promotional materials. We hope they also create actual cast iron seats out of this logo.
