Redlegs Primary Logo
The Cincinnati Redlegs are a Major League Baseball team based in Ohio. The franchise has had several logos throughout its history, but its primary logo has remained largely unchanged since 1954. This iconic design is one of the most recognizable logos in all of the professional sports and is an important part of the team’s identity and legacy.
The current primary logo was first introduced during the 1954 season when it replaced a more traditional shield-style crest featuring crossed bats and two baseballs. It consists of an old English letter “C” with red trim on a white background surrounded by five stars representing each decade that the franchise had been active at that point (1876–1954). Inside each star appears to be either three or four smaller stars depending on which version you look at; this detail was added later for aesthetic reasons only as there is no symbolic meaning associated with them.
This classic design remains largely unchanged over time except for minor tweaks such as color variations (red/black) or subtle shading effects here or there; however, despite these small changes, it still retains its original charm from almost sixty years ago! The Cincinnati Redlegs Primary Logo History symbolizes not only decades' worth of success but also serves as a reminder to fans everywhere about what makes this organization so special – tradition!
1953 - 1958
During the 1950s, during the renaming and re-branding of the team as the Cincinnati Redlegs because of the connections to communism of the word “Reds.” The logo of a baseball player with a mustache baseball head running and carrying a bat was the first logo without a letter or wordmark.
