Retro-pop art played a big part in the emergence of the style, such as retro advertising and poster design. Another area is Retro-futurism, which incorporates science fiction into retro, as seen in cartoons such as The Jetsons, and video games such as BioShock.<\/p>\n<p>Despite retro\u2019s history and iconic style, it\u2019s been out of the mainstream limelight for many decades. Ironically this is also the reason behind its resurgence among designers.<\/p>\n<p>Being different and bringing back old memories, retro has become \u201cin\u201d in recent years, with more and more designers opting to use its style for websites, logos, graphics, and more.<\/p>\n<p>Today, we\u2019ll be taking a look at retro logos, a particular area where the style is thriving today. I hope you will enjoy this collection of excellent retro and vintage logos.<\/p>\n<p class=\"note\"><strong>Recommended Reading:<\/strong> <a target=\"_blank\"
