Some More info ABOUT THIS DESIGN:

Log created by Burton Kramer, a designer and artist whose work is featured as part of the permanent collection at the Smithsonian Institute. Sometimes called the exploding pizza or pineapple, Burton Kramer's modernist logo features the letter "C" for Canada at its core.
According to the CBC's 1974 corporate manual, "the overall shape is globular, conveying the corporation's international responsibilities in addition to its national role. Used between 1974 - 1986. Special broadcasts in the 1970s include the 1972 Canada-Russia hockey
series, being the host broadcaster for the 1976 Summer Olympics in Montreal and the 1978 Commonwealth Games in Edmonton. In 1977 CBC designs and installs broadcast facilities in the Canadian House of Commons at Speaker's request.

Great nod to CBC!

The toque looks great (already gotten complimented!) and it's very practical -- a lot of toques don't come down far enough to keep your ear lobes warm, but this one does! Very happy with it!

I bought this for my husband's birthday - he loves it! I bought the matching ball cap last year. This t-shirt has a great quality to it and should last for quite a while! It was shipped and arrived in good time. I would highly recommend, it's such a great gift for a CBC listener!
