Logos

TAKE A LOOK at the funny little drawings on this page. They are called "logos." A "logo" is something like a trademark; that is, it immediately identifies a product, or a person, or a group of people. For example, the "logo" you see here of the Monkees' guitar makes you think of the Monkees right away, and you get a pleasing mental picture of Davy, Micky, Peter and Mike as you like them best.

Well, the Cowsill Family is looking for a "logo" - an immediately recognizable little drawing - that will make everyone who sees it think of the Cowsills right away. And they are confident that one of 16 Magazine's many talented and imaginative readers is bound to come up with a "logo" drawing for the Cowsills that will become internationally famous - a trademark that will be associated with the Cowsills wherever the drawing is seen.

To get all of you 16-ers into your thinking caps, the Cowsills are eager and ready to give away absolutely free to the contestant who submits the best "logo" drawing for the Cowsill Family every one of those WOW-EE gifts: a color TV set; a hi-fi stereo record player; a king-size collection of all the latest hit LP and single records; a big, personally autographed picture of the Cowsill Family; and a $500 U.S. Savings Bond!

You don't have to be artistic to win all these fab prizes for your very own. You don't even have to submit a good drawing. The idea is the thing that counts most. Make it as attractive and as appealing as you can, and submit a sketch of it as best you can. Think of the Cowsill Family as a group; think of why you like them so much - and why everyone else would like them too, once they got to know them. And then put your thoughts into a drawing which the Cowsill Family can use as a "logo," a trademark. Your drawing does not have to include pictures of the Cowsill Family or its members, or their first names. It should symbolize the Cowsill Family as a whole.

Space has been provided on this page for you to draw a "logo" trademark for the Cowsill Family, in pen or pencil - but if you prefer, you may make your sketch on plain white paper or cardboard. You may submit as many sketches as you like.

All drawings entered in the contest will be judges by Gloria Stavers, Editor-in-Chief of 16 Magazine, and the Cowsill Family. They will award the prizes described above to the contestant who submits, in their judgment, the best "logo" drawing as a trademark for the Cowsill Family.

When you have finished your drawing - or drawings - just fill in the coupon on this page, cut it out and mail it together with your drawing or drawings to the address on the coupon

Remember, you don't have to be artistic to win! Just make your "logo" sketch attractive and appealing and you have just as good a chance to make off with the Cowsills' grab bag of goodies as anyone else!
