St. Louis Cardinals logo and symbol, meaning, history, PNG
- First, it is the iconic birds-on-the-bat symbol, and also the interlocking StL logo.
- In 2012 the birds-on-the-bat logo was named the most known baseball logo (the result of a survey conveyed among ESPN readers).
- Meaning and history There are two things the logo of St Louis Cardinals baseball club can’t be imagined — the image of a bird and a cardinal Ted color.
- The overlapping letters were executed in bold lines with their ends enlarged and rounded.
- This logo stayed with the club for almost twenty years and was the only version of the Cardinals’ visual identity without any bird image on it.
- The black of the letters’ outline was balanced by a long black baseball bat coming through the letter “C”.
- The new emblem featured a red bird sitting in a red baseball bat.
- Louis” lettering in black was written in a traditional serif font above the image.
- 1956 — 1966 The logo, introduced by the club in 1956, depicted a caricature of a red bird with a yellow baseball bat in its wings.
- 1967 — 1997 The redesign of 1967 changed the composition of the logo again.
- 1998 In 1998 the framing and the baseball were removed from the logo and the “Cardinals” wordmark was placed under the bird sitting on a bat.
- It is still a red cardinal bird sitting in a yellow baseball bat and facing left.
- The St Louis Cardinals logo is a representation of the club’s passion for baseball and its strong link with its roots and legacy.
- Color The current St. Louis Cardinals logo features a combination of a dark (“midnight”) shade of navy blue, as well as red, white, and yellow.
