Need simple old-style logo for fictional league

Yankee4 · 09-01-2006, 12:19 AM

My hard drive crashed and I lost my favorite team logo! I had just stumbled across a logo I loved, but I hadn't backed up in a couple weeks before the crash. I can't remember where I borrowed that logo from and I can't locate it anywhere. I think I found it along with the two attached logos. I have a fictional league set in the late 1800's, so I use simple graphics. BTW, thanks to whoever created these!

Anyway, if somebody has what I'm looking for or can re-create it for me, I'd really appreciate it!

It's a very simple logo reading simply "NY"
*The "N" and "Y" should be completely separate,
not intertwined like the Mets/Yanks

Letters: Old-timey blue letters (something like the style of the attached)
Outline: A thin white outline around each letter
Background: Very dark (nearly-black)

No pictures/words/shadowing etc...

Thanks in advance!!!

This is my own creation, based on the letters from an old New York Highlanders logo. Is the background dark enough, or do you want it even darker? I made the background the same color as the letters in this version.

Hey, I just dropped your NY logo into my league and it's almost perfect. Can I ask you to tweak it just a bit?

My other logos are similar (letters only), but take up a bit more room in the space provided. My new NY just looks a little small next to those. Can you "beef up" the "NY" letters a little bit? (Similar height and thickness to the "P" logo I attached).

Also, (if it's not too difficult) can you put the letters on a straight line?

The colors are fine. The blue could be a little lighter (somewhere between navy & royal).

I know I'm probably being a pain in the neck, but I'm just trying to replicate something very specific. Worst case, I can use the one you already made for me and be perfectly happy.

Thanks again!

The only difference is the thickness of the white outline.
