Does anybody here have the Beatles' logo that can be found on the
cover of both Past Masters CD's as well as on the BBC CD's and the
Anthology CD's and other various places?  I would much appreciate an
ascii rendition of it.  Size is not a factor.  Thanks so much,

Well, not quite.  The bottom of the "T" _does_ go down, but the top is
level with the characters next to it.  The "B" is large, but the
bottom is level with the rest of the characters.  Also, there is a
small "THE" somewhere above the "AT" that doesn't go above the top of
the "B".  Using your logo (which is very nice, actually) I've tried to
do what I've just explained.  If anyone can do it any better, please
do so, if you have time or interest.  Thanks.

As you can see, there are still some problems with it.  For example,
the "THE" should be thicker, but I can't seem to make it thicker
without ruining it.  Do you think we can make a smaller one, next?  I
would work with anybody interested in making this logo as close as
possible to the original.  C'ya,
