This past week, I woke up from a dream with the idea for this article (no rock throwing was involved). Since David Lynch and Mark Frost’s Twin Peaks first aired on the ABC Television Network in April 1990, there have been many variations on the series logo. Granted, some of these variations are based on graphic design choices for packaging and layouts. Nevertheless, we see many variations in color, shape, and design. Here is a look back at those logos organized by year of when they were first seen.
TWIN PEAKS LOGO VARIATIONS
This is a work in progress so more logos will be added as I find them. Click on images to enlarge the graphics. I’m saving the Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me logo for a different article.

I’m thankful for your dream and you collecting these logo variants here. Like it alot 💚
In a link preview to this blog post, that I can’t find anymore, I read something about the logo font you created as a font file to use for own texts in the Twin Peaks logo style. Did you delete that? I’d love to have that 😍.
