If you see in the phone booth/kiosk just ahead and above Deckards forhead/hairline by a few millemetres/centimetre-or-so there seems to be a sign that has triangular patterns very similar to that of the Weyland Corporations, possibly built-up seperately as the logo for the Weyland company as an after-thought with no connection to Blade Runner but just for a brief second it is fun to at least speculate - just a little. ( I put the Weyland Corporations logo next to the kiosk 'sticker' for comparioson purposes and one a little lower down. They may just be interesting graphical shapes that merely look good for Graphic Design purposes that Ridley Scott wanted his futrists and fellow designers for Blade Runner to present and inter-lace here-and-there throughout the film. But it is fun to speculate a little! ) [img]http://img600.imageshack.us/img600/5336/30258723.jpg[/img] It could say: 'Information' at the bottom or: 'Corporation' but more than likely it just says the word: 'Information' but trying to look really close it could in fact indeed actually be the word 'Corporation' after all. It is fuzzy lettering at the begining of the word as it curves arond the edge of the metal frame in the lower kiosk/phone booth framework.

Here's another image hinting at what appears to be, to the right hand-side from Deckards' head, a SECOND potential Weyland Corporation logo/sticker! Cool! [img]http://img132.imageshack.us/img132/1927/59347180.jpg[/img] Its tantalizingly obscure to read what is at the begining of the wording/titles to the logo running underneath the black triangles upon a red background surface this timer as opposed to a white one on theversion to the left-hand side of the booth/kiosk in relation to Deckards field of view. I tried to use a higher contrasr, change brighness etc but will have to try it some more. Interesting though don't you think!

Well it is possible as BR did postdate Alien as RS's second entre into the realm of Sci Fi. It may also be something they found or created just to add more generic information to the visuals of the movie. Very hard to say.
