These are pretty cool.  I had thought Mad's might include the intricate boarder but I guess not.

And a very busy one from Ray Bradbury that must have been for short replies or something.

And what comics reader doesn't know Charles Atlas?

Frank Frazetta was asked by John and Bo Derek to design a letterhead for their company Svengali Productions.
Here are a preliminary (which sold for $ 4,500.00!) and final product.

Of the people who would know what "letterhead" is, you're probably right, but I can think of at least two pseudo-celebrities who were blissfully not on the radar at all, before "someone" "accidentally" leaked certain footage where they weren't dressed (to say the least).  It's sad, but I've gotta give it to the useless (and far less attractive) heiresses...

(The shock to me is that DC still had letterhead in 2007.  I mean, wasn't that when they were crowing about how letter columns were useless because "everybody" participated online?)
