Flown in fresh today on a drone dirigible (Zeppelin, no Led) is today's historic post.

The reason it is a historic post is not because it's a great post, its a historic post because it is a history of the MapQuest® logo.

The original MapQuest® logo to the best of our knowledge is the red worded MapQuest®  

pictured below, and accredited to Wikipedia ( http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/MapQuest ).

We don't know what the font is called but it looks stone age or Flintstonian. (I think we just made up a new word in the English language, "Flintstonian"- definition - of or pertaining to the Flintstones.)



The other three green logos are the current logos that MapQuest utilizes today.

For a full blown history of the logo go to this link, http://logos.wikia.com/wiki/Mapquest which is at a site called "Logopedia".
