Logo of PRSA Inc.


Adoption of the PRSA Inc. logo: On 23 and 24 April 1983, in Melbourne, as reported in QN30, the first and only national in-person conference of the Proportional Representation Society of Australia was held. That report stated how the Society made certain decisions, which included adopting its logo.


Recognition of the designer of the logo: QN31 had a further report on the adoption of the logo. The logo that was adopted appears on the letterhead above. The Society made the principal designer of the logo, the late Mr Ted Goode, an Honorary Life Member in 1999, in recognition of his contribution.


QN34, in 1984, was the first issue of Quota Notes, the Society's quarterly newsletter, on which the new logo appeared. The adoption of the logo was commented on in the second article in that issue. The logo has been on the masthead of every issue of Quota Notes since that 1984 issue, and also on the letterhead of the Society's documents and web pages.


The PRSA Inc. logo features a ballot box with a ballot paper passing down through the slit on its top. Its recommended aspect ratio of width to depth is 2:1.
