In the vanishingly short period of time video rental stores were a part of the cultural landscape, thousands of mom-and-pop shops codified a surprisingly unified visual identity. VIDEOLAND collects over 100 logos from independent video stores during the 1980s and ’90s, thematically and chronologically arranged. Assembled by Andy Sturdevant, primarily from local newspaper advertisements.
