Pelikan Logo

Pelikan Logo and symbol, meaning, history, PNG

  • Starting from 1873, the Pelikan logo has had the same core – it has always featured a pelican in a nest with the chicks.
  • However, the image has been redrawn multiple times, each new version coming with new details.
  • 1873 — 1878 The author of the original logo was Günther Wagner himself.
  • The emblem featured a rather dark pelican with a huge beak and three chicks.
  • According to the brand’s website, the original logo was designed in 1873.
  • It has been known among the oldest trademark registrations in Germany.
  • In this version, the pelican is by far lighter and has a smaller beak.
  • While the global Pelican website insists this logo was registered in 1878, the UK version states that it took place in 1895.
  • There were four chics, like in the previous version, but the pelican’s wing was more rounded and full, for instance.
  • For instance, the nest and the ring were solid blue (instead of being made up of multiple strokes).
  • The wordmark grew bolder and looked almost exactly like the current one.
  • The lower part of the beak grew bolder.
  • Also, the wordmark became lighter and cleaner (note, for instance, the simplified shape of the “k”).
  • Font The type in the Pelikan logo is inspired by an elegant cursive script with a great variation in the thicknesses of the strokes.
