New York Highlanders Primary Logo

New York Highlanders Primary Logo 1909 - 1912

New York Highlanders

1909 - 1912

It wasn't until 1909 that the team changed to the familiar interlocking NY that would be the team logo long after the team became known as the Yankees. The interlocking NY was originally designed by Louis C. Tiffany.

Highlanders Primary Logo

The New York Highlanders Primary Logo History is a fascinating story that dates back to 1903. This iconic logo has been around for over 100 years, and it has gone through several changes throughout its history. Initially, the logo featured two crossed swords with a “NY” in between them; this was later changed to a baseball bat and ball design in 1912. The current version of the logo features an interlocking “NY” above a white circle with red trimming on top and bottom, which symbolizes the team's official colors of blue and orange.

The original color scheme for the New York Highlanders Primary Logo was navy blue on white background; however, when they moved to their new home at Yankee Stadium in 1923 they decided to change it up by adding some orange accents as well as making other minor adjustments such as changing from navy blue lettering on white background into black lettering against an off-white backdrop instead. Over time these small alterations have added up so much that today we recognize this classic emblem just about anywhere we go!

As one of Major League Baseball's oldest teams still playing today (they were established before even Babe Ruth!), it is no surprise that many people are fondly familiar with this beloved primary logo—it truly stands out amongst all others! With its rich history spanning more than a century now, there is no doubt why fans continue showing their loyalty towards not only their favorite players but also towards what can be seen as one unified symbol: The New York Highlanders' primary logo!
