- Having been twice recast, the bell cracked again at the beginning of the XIX century, nevertheless, it became a patriotic symbol of the independence of the United States of America and its image has been widely used by various groups and institutions.
- Its first version had the form of a shield with an inscription “South Penn Oil Co.” around it and an image of the Bell with an inclined word “PENNZOIL” in block letters across it.
- The shield had a blonde yellow colour while the bell image and the company name were in scarlet red while the trademark “PENNZOIL” was in black.
- The shield, the bell and all the letters had a metal colour edging.
- Later, the Pennzoil logo took the form of an ellipse with the image of the Liberty Toll and just one brand name “PENNZOIL” across it.
