History of the Ford Logo
The first logo was a circle with fancy writing around it, but it didn’t last. In 1907, Ford made a new logo with the word “Ford” in fancy writing. This logo was called the “script with wings”. By 1912, Ford changed the logo again. This time, they put “Ford” inside an oval shape, which showed quality and reliability.
The modern Ford logo we know today came in 1927 with the Model A. It had a blue background and white “Ford” letters, showing trust and durability. Ford made small changes to the logo over the years. They made the blue darker in 1957 and updated the font to look more modern.
Ford’s logo shows their history and quality. It’s simple but powerful, like their cars. In 2003, Ford celebrated 100 years with a special logo.
