Summary

Two Blue Jays marks show the 1977 circular bird-and-baseball badge beside the 1997 angular leaf-integrated logo.

Visual description

Black year labels sit above each mark on pale gray. The older logo uses a roundel with serif team name; the newer pairs a sharper jay head with a thick-bordered red maple leaf and shadowed BLUE JAYS type.

Key takeaway

Juxtaposing eras makes stylistic shifts in sports branding instantly legible.
