What Is the Att Logo

As a tribute to its founder’s name, AT&T chose a bell as its first visual symbol. Designed in 1889, the company’s first logo displayed a bell in a triple square frame. One year later, in 1900, the logo was reshaped into an emblem.

The iconic bell in a circular frame was replaced by a stylized globe image where the solid blue circle had a horizontal striped pattern with the stripes emboldened on their left. The new badge got a nickname “Death Star” and stayed with AT&T for many years, becoming a basis for the current company’s emblem.

On November 21, 2005, SBC Communications merged with AT&T, and as a result there were slight changes in the globe as well as the font. On December 2nd, 2015, AT&T showed the public a new logo on ten years that was blue and white and had block letters for the company name.
