New York Giants


 * This article is about the National Football League team. For the Major League Baseball team formerly known as the New York Giants, see San Francisco Giants.

1961–1974


Introduced in 1961, the Giants' original "ny" monogram was designed by Marie Barclay Steinmuller, who had previously created the 1948 "giant quarterback" logo.

1975


Known as the "electric logo" or the "disco logo", this design was only used for the 1975 season and was discarded once the Giants moved from Shea Stadium in Queens to Giants Stadium in East Rutherford a year later.

1976–1980


This logo was adopted when the Giants moved their team operations to the Meadowlands in New Jersey for the 1976 season. The team continues to use this as a secondary logo, albeit with a lighter shade of blue and less space between the wordmark and the underline.

1981–1999


The shade of blue was made lighter for the 1981 season.

2000–present


In 2000, the Giants changed their logo to a redrawn version of the 1961 "ny" monogram, with two different versions: one with red outlines and one in plain blue (akin to its original counterpart). This change was initially met with some controversy due to the Giants' plans to remain in New Jersey. However, then-owner Wellington Mara stated that this change was made since management agreed that the "ny" monogram was "the greatest logo not being used", and because the Giants "represent, and always have, the New York/New Jersey metropolitan area." The new "ny" symbol had previously been used for the team's 75th anniversary in 1999.
