DTConcepts Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 I bet there's a thread for this already, but I was inspired to make this after seeing that the old Avalanche jerseys and the Islanders' Fish Sticks jerseys used, for at least a short time, the same font on their alternate captain patches. (I know the Isles' patch looks taller, but that's because of the angle of the photo) Do you have any other things two teams did at the same time? "You ain't gonna learn what you don't wanna know..."

(I know the Isles' patch looks taller, but that's because of the angle of the photo) Do you have any other things two teams (In the same league, of course) did at the same time? Those are very similar, but not quite the same. 1. The extension of the crossbar(?) angles down on the Islanders A, but goes is straight/horizontal on the Avalanche A. 2. There are serifs on the bottom of the Avalanche A. 3. The right line on the Islanders A is straight (i.e., at a 90 degree angle to the top and bottom of the letter, while the right line on the Avalanche A is angled slightly to the left.

pianoknight Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Same league would be tough. The Reds and Twins use a VERY similar C logo, which also looks a lot like the Chicago Bears. Inter-league or across sports has a ton more examples. Georgia-Grambling-Packers comes to mind immediately. 5th in NAT. TITLES | 2nd in CONF.

leopard88 Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Do the Princeton-Michigan-Delaware football helmets count if we are going across sports? I'm drawing a blank within leagues (unless you count things like Braisher stripes or the Ravens/Titans front helmet stripes).

SFGiants58 Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 The latter’s cap logo & wordmark font are an evolution of the same elements on the former. MLB: Project 32 (Complete), MLB: The Defunct Saga (Complete) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digby Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 Red Sox and UCLA using just about the same B? Maybe not popular at UCLA this week. (Can really stretch it if we throw in the Dodgers' B from the Brooklyn days, though I'm not sure that was ever exactly the same as Boston's.)

Georgia-Grambling-Packers comes to mind immediately. Anyone know why the wishbone-C was such a very popular design motif in the first half of the 20th Century? The Indians and Cubs used wishbone-C variants as well: Also, of these examples from the major pro leagues, I think the Bears are the only one with an asymmetrical logo--design mistake never corrected or intentional design element? Makes it easy to detect trademark or copyright infringement I suppose. Visit my store on REDBUBBLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferdinand Cesarano Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 I use the wishbone C, as well! (It's really a cap from the Rochester Red Wings, on which the FC stands for "Flower City". But just as Bruce Kulick wore BK shirts; I wear this cap.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bears only started using the wishbone C in the 60s as an homage to the Cubs (as is their name and for a long time they shared Wrigley Field). I believe their C was modified at some point to prevent a lawsuit, in typical Halas fashion. Quote "You are nothing more than a small cancer on this message board.

Sport Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 It used to bug the craps out of me that the Devils and Senators wore basically identical socks as each other. An infinite number of ways a team could stripe a sock and these two did it the exact same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
