In advance of the 2013 playing season, the Crystal Palace created a new logo, which actually looks more like the 1973 badge than the 1993 logo. The now aggressive phoenix in blue and white clutching a football towering above the crystal palace in silver. A blue with a red trim banner with the wordmark “CRYSTAL PALACE F.C.” in white.

While the following badge preserved the structure of its forerunner, the eagle now had a more aggressive, eagle-like look, as the club’s chairman Ron Noades supposed that the bird from the old logo could have been easily mistaken for a phoenix.

Malcom Allison arrived as manager in 1973 and totally rebranded the club. He changed the shirt colors to red and blue stripes, with the Eagles nickname, and a ‘phoenix’ looking eagle to represent the rising from the Crystal Palace ashes was displayed with the palace in a new club badge.

This simple design without the Crystal Palace was chosen by the club after they held a competition amongst fans for the 1972 season. Encircled wordmark “THE GLAZIERS CRYSTAL PALACE F.C.” in white on a red background. Centered is the initials “CP” in blue.

Diagonal wordmark scripted “Crystal Palace” in yellow on a red background.

Blue and red half shape designs with a gap.

A more elaborate version of the famous glass building was adopted in 1955 by the Glaziers. A flowing white with gold trim banner in front with a wordmark “CRYSTAL PALACE F.C.” in black.

Although the club was founded in 1905, no official club crest was used until the late 1940s when an image of the Crystal Palace with a claret and blue shield was produced.
