If you work in the advertising industry for long enough, say for about a week, you realize that the best creative work is rarely approved for public release.
The images below have been doing the email rounds, but their origin is unknown. Could they be designs for posters that were not approved by the Olympic Organizing Committee because they are actually quite good?
If you know the origin of these images, please tell us: write to jeremy @ danwei.org.
