Parramatta Eels logo and symbol, meaning, history, PNG
- Download PNG Parramatta Eels Logo PNG As Parramatta was established in 1946, it’s hardly a surprise it originally didn’t have an official nickname, mascot, and logo.
- It was rare for Australian rugby league teams founded before the 1980s to get all these immediately after they were established.
- Meaning and history 1946 — 1974 During its early years, the team was sometimes referred to as “Fruitpickers” (because there was a lot of orchards in the vicinity), but this word has never received the status of the official nickname.
- You can come across an old Parramatta Eels logo depicting a human figure with a pole inside a ring.
- Below, there’s a banner “Parramatta.” The logo combines black, white, dark blue, and a rich shade of gold.
- While it was also based on blue and yellow, the shades were completely different, and green was added to the palette.
- For the first time, the logo depicted an eel’s head.
- The creature had a menacing expression on its muzzle – it appeared ready to attack.
- While the players’ kits were redesigned more than once, the crest itself remained virtually unchanged until 1999.
- There were a lot of sharp angles, and the eel had visible white teeth.
- Also, it was more dynamic than its predecessor – you could feel implied motion even in the way the letters changed its size from the initial “E” to the final “S.” And yet, there was a cartoonish feel, and also the eel didn’t look as if it was seriously going to attack.
- You could even perceive something friendly about it, in spite of the sharp fangs, as if it was smiling.
- It was dynamic and had a more serious mood.
- The ring encircling the eel’s head was now of a slightly different shape, and there was also the year when the club was founded – 1947.
