When seeing all the logos together (there has been one every season since 1968), I felt you really got a sense of design style and typography through the decades. You can see the trends of popular fonts and colour schemes from each particular era. Also certain early logo styles are very much back on trend thus illustrating the cycle of 'fashionable' design.
Much like fashion in fact, design tends to follow underlining trends in the industry, and I thought it was really interesting to see how the logo has been adapted and altered throughout the years. The designs often reflect the location of each Super Bowl and the roman numerals often dominate the design, but you definitely get a sense of when the logo was produced.
Below I have picked out a few designs that I feel convey the era strongly and that I particularly like.
