Vintage Japanese Robots



Iconic graphic designer Tom Geismar, whose firm Chermayeff & Geismar has created memorable logos for Mobil, PBS and other U.S. institutions, has been collecting Japanese toy robots for decades.

The Science Fiction Museum and Hall of Fame in Seattle will exhibit toys from Geismar’s collection in Robots: A Designer’s Collection of Miniature Mechanical Marvels through Oct. 26.

The vintage robots on display reflect Geismar’s trained eye. “I’ve really restricted myself to ones that appealed to me as interesting, imaginative designs,” he says.
