Haven't got a clue, just know that it's two hands interlocking in a rotationally symmetrical fashion.

There are literally myriads of logos with two hands:

Just a sample:
The Boys & Girls Clubs of Manatee
Declaration of Independence Film Festival
Nice one: Logo by Christian Palino (>Logo Marks>top left)
Helping Hands Ministry
National Association of Black Accountants
Or the SED logo? No, not very much Yin&Yang in it … ;^)

The one I'm thinking of is based on a circle or ellipse and the hands are not shaking as such but flowing into each other. The whole thing has rotation symmetry.

Not that it helps, but I can bring to mind the one you're talking about, Nick. Smoothly rounded curvilinear fingers, right? One white hand, one black... I've definitely seen it somewhere. I'll have a look in "A Smile in the Mind" later to see if it's in there somewhere...

I can picture it too. Counselling… advice… legal… ?

I think I MIGHT have been thinking about this old CRE logo, but I'm not sure.

Four hands in a fireman's carry - I definitely remember seeing that but can't put my finger on what it was for…

Insurance company?

Hmm, the CRE one isn't what I was thinking of, but it's Nick's question!
It wasn't in "A Smile in the Mind", nor in the "Logo Font & Lettering Bible" so wherever I did see it was probably in actual use...

Frustrating.

Ah finally! Found it! (At least the one I was thinking of)

That's the one I was thinking of - just couldn't put 2 and 3 together…

Not the one I was thinking of I'm afraid.

The one I'm thinking of has just two hands. They are the same hand rotated through 180 degrees. It is within a circular device. May well be a UK logo, as I already said. Aaargh!

Could it be this one: Conservatives. Moving Britain forward?

Not it but much closer to the one I have in mind.

There is one in black and red which might be what you're looking for.

sounds like Bass...?

That black and red one is certainly very close to what I was visualising: but I guess Nick's hoping to find who it is that actually has a logo like that... Quite frustrating!

I was thinking of a very similar logo. I came across this one on my travels:

to be honest the one I had in mind had two hands.

Dave (dtw), that's 'exactly' (I think) what I had in mind but whose logo is it???

Frustrating, ain't it?

Someone must know the answer somewhere??????? Arggggghhhhhh!
