The "o" within the word "Not" is in the form of a knot tied loosely in a pretzel-like shape. The rest of the letters are in a script font. The large "N" crosses imperfectly on the top left, creating an X-shape on the top left of the "N". The "t" in the word "Not" is crossed with a long horizontal line. |
