Boston Red Sox Alternate Logo

Boston Red Sox Alternate Logo History
The Red Sox alternate logo of the pica font letter "B" is another classic looking logo. The red with the strong blue outline just works. The corny looking red sox swing a bat (the 1950's alternate logo) is an odd-looking double chin character.

The Red Sox' cap "B" logo has represented both the city of Boston and the club for more than 75 years.
The Red Sox' headwear was spartan-looking during the first few decades of the franchise's existence, featuring either horizontal or vertical stripes, or no decoration at all. The first visual representation of anything on the team's cap came in 1931—a single red sock. This lasted for but one season.
Finally, in 1936, the Red Sox settled upon a visual icon that they have continued to use, right up to the present time.
The "B" has evolved over the years. A white outline was added in 1946. The base color of the caps was changed from navy blue to red in the mid 70s, then back to the traditional navy blue in 1979. The team reverted back to white caps for the first time in 60 years for an April 13, 1997 game against Seattle at Fenway Park. This time the"B" was red, outlined in navy.
