An interesting analysis of Olympic logos (original page: https://eyeondesign.aiga.org/milton-glaser-analyzes-olympic-logo-design-through-the-ages/) from a design standpoint, by the guy who developed the "I [Heart] NY" logo.
While I don't agree with everything he has to say, by and large I do. A lot of them, older and more modern, come across as design-by-committee, which rarely ends well.
