Personalization

In the 1960s it was a popular trend to personalize one's possessions with your initials.

From wallets and handbags to eyeglasses; from luggage to even cars, initial personalization was the fad of the time.

The British division of Gulf Oil offered for sale a set of gold metallic stick-on initials for 25 pence, complete with two Gulf logos so the company could get some extra advertising mileage out of the promotion.

These extra-wide, bold initials served as the idea model for Personalization JNL, which is available in both regular and oblique versions.
