History of the Starbuck’s logo

This blog is something i am not use to so bare with me .

In 1971 a not a named wide shop released their logo out into the public . the logo consist of a fully figured siren. The company that released the logo is yes indeed Starbucks . The logo and the coffee shop we know today has had its renovation,also a lot of logo modification . This blog will be about the origin ,meaning and the modification it went through.
The Starbucks logo was released in 1971 in Seattle ,Washington.The logo at first from the 1971 picture , shows the color of a dark umber and their signature mascot the siren. The siren is known in Greek mythology as  dangerous and beautiful creatures luring sailors to their deaths. It is ironic and nostalgic that the siren is the mascot for Starbucks as you can see their  coffee is luring and addicting as they  real in customers.
Any who the first Starbucks logo was  a fully drawn highly detail siren .the outside circle  is brown with white text . This logo went on as being their logo for a numbers of years till the year 1987 ,which then the logo went under a couple modification . in the year 1992 they changed the logo completely,  Instead of the brown color they switched to green and the difference between the 1971 logo and the 1992 logo is the siren is turned into a more simplistic and more bold . Also instead of having a fully figured siren they cut that off and showed from the chest up leaving out the details of showing her breast due to some controversy .also you can see that the inner circle of where the siren is has been changed to black and white . the text on the outer circle is still white under it they have two stars, that was the logo for the year 1992-2011.
In the year 2011 they re-changed the logo again this time taking out their name and just enlarging the siren leaving it with a lighter shade of green and having the siren and making it a little more geometric, This is the logo of today if you notice it on your Starbucks coffee cups and merchandise today ,maybe not on the little frappuccinos but on the Styrofoam cups at the cafe’s
so this concludes the history of the Starbucks logo from the release of it in 1971,the meaning of their mascot and how it changed over the years.
