Boston Patriots Primary Logo

Patriots Primary Logo

The Boston Patriots' primary logo has a long and storied history. From their humble beginnings as an American Football League team in 1960, the Patriots have undergone several iterations of their iconic logo. The original design featured a white tricorne hat with a blue star inside it, which was meant to represent the Revolutionary War-era Minutemen who fought for independence from Britain. This same basic design has been used ever since but with some minor changes over time, such as adding red accents or changing up the shape of the hat slightly.

In 1993, when Robert Kraft purchased the team and changed its name to “New England Patriots,” they also updated their logo by replacing that classic tricorne hat with an even more patriotic icon: A colonial soldier holding his musket above his head while standing atop a football helmet emblazoned with stars and stripes on either side – all set against a backdrop of navy blue sky dotted by white clouds! This new look was bolder than before and helped establish them into NFL lore forever.

Today, this same New England Patriot Logo has still recognized around the world thanks mainly in part due to its various appearances on Super Bowl championship merchandise throughout recent years; not only does it serve as a constant reminder of one's allegiance towards this beloved franchise but also serves as a testament to how far they have come since those early days back in 1960s AFL!

Boston Patriots
1961 - 1971

From 1961 – 1992, the Patriots used a logo of a Revolutionary War minuteman hiking a football. “Pat Patriot,” the cartoon of a Minuteman preparing to snap a football drawn by the Boston Globe’s Phil Bissell, was chosen as the team’s logo.


The Story Behind Patriot Pat from the Cartoonist Who Created Him

In 1960, Boston Globe cartoonist Phil Bissell, working for $25 a day, was handed an assignment that would change his life—and the lives of fans of the brand-new AFL football team coming to Boston. “Sports editor Jerry Nason came to me and he said, ‘They’ve decided to call the team the Boston Patriots. You better have a cartoon ready for tomorrow’s edition.’ I sat down, I drew that cartoon original of Pat in about 45 minutes,” Bissell said. “I thought about it for about two minutes and went to work. I had to get the day’s work out.” Read More...
