Description: Stereo City was a provider of hi-fi equipment seen on trucks in a few episodes of The Dukes of Hazzard and this design is based on that fictional brand. Aside from an embellished version of the original logo, it includes an authentic vintage treatment to give it a well worn look.
Description: WPLJ 95.5 FM became one of New York City’s defining rock radio stations after adopting its famous call letters and progressive rock format in 1971. Broadcasting from Manhattan, WPLJ helped shape the sound of FM radio during the '70s by introducing listeners to album-oriented rock, deeper cuts, and emerging artists that AM stations often ignored. The station’s call letters came from “White Port and Lemon Juice,” a blues song by The Four Deuces, reflecting the era’s free-form rock spirit. Over the decades, WPLJ evolved through rock, Top 40, and hot adult contemporary formats while becoming home to legendary New York radio personalities and morning shows, remaining a major presence on the city’s air waves until its final sign-off in 2019.
Description: The Wiz, also known at times as Nobody Beats the Wiz, was a chain of electronic stores in the northeastern United States, located primarily in New York, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey. Some locations were in Canada as well. The chain was founded by four brothers, Douglas, Lawrence, Marvin, and Stephan Jemal, in New York City in 1977. Later, it officially changed its name to its well-known advertising slogan, "Nobody Beats The Wiz." During the early-to-mid 1990s, the chain was a major sponsor for all local NY sports franchises and had a significant television advertising presence during local sports events. In 1998, after having expanded from roughly 20 stores to over 80 stores in less than a year, the chain filed for bankruptcy.

In 1974, it was sold to Fania Records and stopped issuing new releases in 1981; however, the label's extensive catalog continues to be reissued under the Tico Records name.
