An arrow?

I'd always thought it was a fallen tree, in honor of all of them killed to make FedEx boxes.

Just curious but do we know it was intentional? I mean maybe some graphic artist is sitting in a bar reading this today saying, "Whoa, that's cool. Um, I mean, I totally did that intentionally".

@georgetakei I did. I haven’t been able to unsee it for a long long time.

@georgetakei Just wait until you learn about the bear in the Toblerone logo

@georgetakei Never noticed it, but it's sitting there in plain sight. Now I'll be seeing it all the time.

Everybody goes on about the arrow, but did you notice the spoon? Look at the lower case "e" in the Fed.

The person who created the logo, Lindon Leader, was really hungry when he made it.

Just kidding about the hunger, but it was created by Lindon Leader.

@georgetakei FedEx paid Landon and Associates over $1m in early ‘90s for that logo and application to trucks and planes. The hidden arrow was the secret surprise.

@georgetakei Never mind the arrow--check out the bat signal on top over the e and d.

@georgetakei So, FedEx don't operate in the Arabic world (or struggle to compete, and also struggle to understand why).

YIKES!!!
I had not heard of the arrow so I stared at it for a while thinking WTF? and then suddenly it leaped out at me.

@georgetakei my 15 yo daughter told me about it a couple of years ago!

@georgetakei I knew about the arrow, but did you notice the big round hole in the d? That's a portal to an alternate dimension where your parcels end up actually getting delivered.
