How they changed over the years.

Good info for newer members/collectors.

That is not accurate. There are many more. Also depends on is it U.S Shell, European Shell, U.S. west coast or U.S. east coast.

These were taken from a Shell Oil magazine,logos used in the U.S.A.

I agree with Matt.

I agree with you, This is an accurate chart of the major US changes of the basic clam shell logo. It is just incomplete, as there are more, less significant changes, that occurred over the years. I don't think the original intent of this chart was to include all foreign logos. Thanks for posting.

That original shell logo really sucked in 1900. https://www.designhill.com/design-b...from-insignificance-to-an-iconic-status/

I understand what Matt is saying,not all logos are on the post.

This is from the 20's era.Note it has 15 flutes and the broken line side to side near the bottom.


More Shell logos.

Very cool timeline of branding development! I have this oil can that's stamped 1980... interesting to compare!
