Awesome logo. Another team where I look at it and go "hmm...can I put them somewhere?"

Another set I did about 70% of a while back and just completed for fun. Again I don't take full credit since this is essentially just CephasJames Bombers franchise redone in a style that more closely matches the historical MLB set NoPepper/ashantewarrier did. Past the 1950's I think they get a little sameish, but I do like how they came out.

Once again logos are not my current specialty, so if either tx or knuckler want to pitch in there I would welcome it.

Fun fact: I'm in the sixties in my league and this franchise still hasn't won a championship or a league pennant. Last season they finished second and just four games out in the newly created eastern division so they appear to be on the cusp of finally making the playoffs.

In the league I'm playing the franchise started out in St. Louis, so I've included those jerseys as well. I moved them at the start of the great depression on a whim because they were awful in just about every respect.

Do you have the pilot logo any larger? I will be happy to make a logo to go with the set.

I decided to go with the Worcester Hearts. One of the city's nicknames is the Heart of the Commonwealth and the heart is featured prominently on the city flag as well as on some of the street signs downtown. The green in the logo comes from the city flag.

The other option that I considered was the Worcester Hilltoppers since one of the additional nicknames is the City of Seven Hills. I might explore that option at some point.

That is quality. And another day, another logo I need to figure out where to fit into my leagues somewhere. I just like "the hearts" as a team name. It's quality.

Thanks, DC. The feedback means a lot. I like the name, but I was also a little worried about it.

Lafayette, thanks for posting the logo. I like the colors you chose and the uniforms are great.

knuckler · 11-15-2014, 07:56 PM

Let me know if I can improve this logo for you, Lafayette.

Really awesome uniforms - thank you as always, Tex. I like the cap with the heart on it a lot.

Hi Tx,

Thank you for all your hard work in this forum, I keep dropping into it and am amazed by your and knuckler's work, your creations really help people enjoy the game even more.

I'm starting up a new team - Portland Panthers and I was wondering if you would be kind enough to modify your circular logo to fit the team.

If possible, I would like the words Portland Panthers Baseball Club around the outside and the image of the panther on the inside.

Maybe orange in the background centre and blue on the outside? But I am happy if you decide something else works best.

I have attached the uniform I have made using Justafan's excellent uniform and cap creators for reference and colours.

Would it be possible to modify the Arizona Wrens cap to have the bird on it, rather than the letter like the Orioles?

By accident, I noticed a few years ago that the Arizona team was the former Carolina team and vice versa. So I swapped monikers and players and now the Wrens (who began in 1800 as the Carolina Wrens) are back.

I modified the logo myself by just erasing Arizona, but a new uniform would be great sometime. No rush as usual.

DC, I just today noticed your request in the thread about the Peanuts possibly having an elephant as a logo, so here is a take on that:

I know that you said you erased the city portion, but just in case you would like it with the same font:

knuckler · 11-16-2014, 04:56 PM

I decided to name the New Haven club the Knights. In addition to the alliteration, the Knights of Columbus were founded and headquartered there.

darkcloud4579 · 11-16-2014, 05:07 PM

Thanks gang. Such rockstars. That Peanuts logo knuck is better than I could've imagined. Really brings the story to life in a way I never anticipated.
