Dodgers Primary Logo

The Brooklyn Dodgers' primary logo has a long and storied history. It is an iconic symbol of the team’s past successes and future aspirations, as well as being one of the most recognizable logos in professional sports. The original Brooklyn Dodger logo was created in 1913 when they were still known as the “Robins”. This design featured a robin perched atop a baseball bat with its wings spread out to form an arch above it, which symbolized strength and power for their team name at that time.

In 1932, after changing their name to “Dodgers” from Robins due to public opinion about birds being associated with losing teams, they unveiled their new primary logo featuring interlocking letters B-R-O-O-K representing each letter of "Brooklyn". This design remained unchanged until 1947 when it was updated slightly by adding blue trim around the edges making them stand out more prominently against white backgrounds or light colors used on uniforms or other promotional items such as hats etc.

Today's version has been tweaked several times since then but remains largely similar to what fans saw back in 1947; two large capital letters B & D intertwined together forming one big shape that represents both unities between players & fans alike while also paying homage to its roots going all way back over 100 years ago! With this classic look still intact today - there's no doubt why so many people recognize this beloved emblem wherever they go!

Todd Radom Design: Why the Los Angeles Dodgers Were Not the Brooklyn Canaries

In 1931 the Brooklyn Robins had a dilemma. Their very identity was at stake. The Robins—Brooklyn's entry in the National League—were called what they were in honor of manager Wilbert Robinson, who took the helm as skipper in 1914. Their 1931 uniforms featured a "B"—appropriately rendered in robin's-egg blue. His retirement at the conclusion of the 1931 season provided a fresh opportunity for the franchise to rebrand itself for a new era. Robinson's departure spurred a movement to rename the team, variously called Bridegrooms, Superbas, and Dodgers since their NL inception in 1890. Read More...
