Reading Brands
Brands are read from left to right, from the top down, or from outside
inside. A definite method of identifying characters has been established.
If a letter or symbol is made backwards from its normal position, it's read
as a “reverse F” or whatever other letter it might be. A letter partially
over on its face or back is said to be “tumbling.” If a letter lies
horizontally on its face or back, it is called “lazy.”
Letters with a
curving flare at the top and rounded angles are called
“running.” Adding a dash to the left and one to the right at the top,
you have a "flying" letter. Add legs and it becomes a “walking”
letter. A letter placed so that the bottom touches the inside of a curve
is said to be “rocking.”
Curves not attached to letters are known as
“quarter circles” or “half circles,” depending on the arc. Letters or
symbols formed together are called “connected,” except when one is
below the other, then the lower symbol is said to be “swinging.” In
registering brands, owners sometimes omit the “connected” or
“swinging” Thus, might be read simply Diamond J rather than Diamond
Swinging J.
