WHA Logo PNG

Meaning and history
Today, the World Hockey Association logo may look a bit naive and crude, and yet, in the years when the association was active (from 1972 to 1979), it was probably perceived as a perfectly up-to-date one.
The focal point of the WHA logo was a comparatively realistic hockey player in white and dark blue. He was depicted in the middle of the game. Below him, there was the lettering “WHA” in red. The letters were solid and very bold. Moreover, they were stuck to each other making the legibility even worse. The picture and the emblem were placed on the white background and encircled by a very thin red outline.
