minus-squareNorah - She/They@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-210 months agoThat’s definitely not true. They used that typeface and logo on their products way past ‘68. They still use that typeface and the logo was used until 2013: https://logos-world.net/philips-logo/ Also there’s no way that’s a late 60s design. Here’s a toaster of their’s from the early 70s: https://soft-electronics.com/object/philips_toaster_hd_4127 I would say it’s a mid-80s to early-90s model if I had to take a guess. I had a go at finding it but wasn’t able too.
