About the lettering
Designer Suzy Rice built the 1977 logo from Helvetica Black, then modified it: letterforms were squared and tightened, joins were rebuilt (notably the connected S-T and R-S), and the bars of the S and the crossbar treatment were extended to give the mark its long horizontal arms. The result reads as Helvetica at a glance, but no setting of Helvetica Black reproduces it exactly.
