LogoHound Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 I recently came across an unused logo guide for the Clippers. The guide said that it was copyrighted in 1993 by the NBA. Inside it was a new primary and secondary logo. Unfortunately it didn't have any uniforms with it. But since there has been quite a few topics about their logo here, I thought that they should be posted. It's kind of hard to tell but that grey color is a metalic silver like the Mavericks'. Sorry for the poor image quality, my scanner is real old and needs to be replaced.Well here they are:PrimarySecondary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL FANATIC Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Thanks for posting this nice find.On one hand having a real logo would be an improvement, but that's not a good logo. And because it'd change the colors, that would overall harm their identity. JUSTIN STRIEBEL | PORTFOLIO | RESUME | CONTACT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rtrich11 Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 They've needed a new logo for a while now, but this wasn't it. A Clipper is a boat, not a wave. Duh. It also seems a bit CBA. cafepress.com/artbyrichards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milo Meningocele Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 They're still better off with their current bland identity than with that piece of garbage. That's just a wave. Where is the clipper? With a unique nickname like theirs, they have an opportunity to have one of the best sets in all of sports, yet their look is so incredibly boring. There's really no excuse for them not to have a killer package centered around a well executed clipper ship logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sodboy13 Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Wow, everything about that logo practically screams "mid-'90s design," doesn't it?Of course, a few years later, a couple of tweaks, and... voila!

BadSeed84 Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 The only good that this as their logo wouldve done, would be them getting a newer logo, cause theres no way that wouldve lasted until now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJTank Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Looks somewhat like the 1990 ASG logohttp://www.sportslogos.net/logo.php?lo=5568 www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommytimp Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Every year around lottery and draft time I think the Clips are finally going to come out with a logo and a new set of unis that they've been sitting on and that will be state of the art and worthy of Los Angeles. Then I remember their owner is Mr. Laissez-Faire.

Bleujayone Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Logo looks more for a team called the "Breakers" rather than the "Clippers". We all have our little faults. Mine's in California. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxjdm66 Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Logo looks more for a team called the "Breakers" rather than the "Clippers".or the "Surf" Redskin IS a racist term, no matter how Daniel Snyder tries to spin it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leedsunited Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Dear god, those absolutely REEK of 1993. The electric orange and teal? And the stupid spikes around the city name that would feature prominently in the Toronto Raptors logo? Yeesh. That thing was probably dated a week after its design.In this case, the Clips were better served by standing pat. Big time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
