Meaning and history
1940 – 1948
The 1940 logos were more of a caricature.
1948 – 1949
The redesign of 1948 introduced a funny Spartan caricature as the official logo of the athletic program. The man, wearing a warrior helmet had one of his eyes wide open as if he was observing those looking at him with great attention.
1949 – 1960
The original one featured a side view of a Spartan warrior wearing a shield. The warrior was facing to the right, similar to the one depicted on the following logo.
1960 – 1977
On the 1960 version, the Spartan turned to the left.
1977 – 1981
On the 1977 emblem, the angled view of the warrior’s face could be seen.
1981 – 1983
The Spartans logo from 1981 was drawn in the same manner and color palette as the previous emblem. The helmet featured a shorter upper part, which made the Spartan look stronger and more dangerous.
1983 – 1985
The Spartans’ 1983 logo featured an image of a warrior’s head with a horse comb. The whole logo was colored gold-yelllow and blue.
1985 – 1999
The next logo was just a Spartan helmet colored blue. It was turned left. The helmet had a minimalistic style with no complicated forms.
1999 – 2010
In 1999, the era of more abstract logos came.
2010 – 2018
For a new decade, Spartans made a new logo. It was a yellow helmet with bold blue outline. The comb was featured as multiple triangles drawn yellow and blue, and they had a white space in between.
2018 – Today
Another brand logo had the similar visual style and color palette, but it was a bit renovated. The whole image became blue and yellow, and the comb was elongated.
