The St. Louis Cardinals have a long and storied history in the world of Major League Baseball, and their logo has been an integral part of that story for more than a century, particularly in relation to the St. Louis Cardinals Wordmark logo. The team's iconic redbird logo is one of the most recognizable symbols in all sports, but it wasn't always so. Over its nearly 140-year existence, the Cardinals have had several alternate logos throughout their history that represent different eras for this beloved franchise.

One such example was from 1967 to 1972 when they unveiled an updated version of their classic bird silhouette with a yellow background instead of white or gray as seen on earlier versions; this design also featured two baseball bats crisscrossing behind the bird’s head which gave it some extra flair compared to other designs at that time period. The next major change came during the 1998 season when they introduced another new look featuring an angry-looking cardinal perched atop three red stripes meant to symbolize both strength and speed; this design remained until 2002 before being replaced by yet another variation which included additional elements like stars around its neck representing each World Series championship won by St Louis up until then (10 total).

Today, while still keeping true to traditional style birds found in previous iterations – including those mentioned above –the current version features subtle improvements such as shading within wings & body along with better defined facial features giving modern-day fans something fresh yet familiar enough not feel disconnected from past generations who cheered them on through thick & thin over decades gone by! Ultimately though no matter what changes may come about over years ahead one thing will remain constant: love displayed towards Saint Louis' favorite baseball team via loyalty expressed through its emblematic mascot we call “The Redbirds.”
