The Celtic logo is composed of a stylized clover image, enclosed in a wide circular frame with a white background and a double green outline. With these chosen finalists, the second phase of the project was to invite journalists and design specialists to judge the badges. The ratings/reviews displayed here may not be representative of every listing on this page, or of every review for these listings. Clear examples of the 3 leaf being used until then was the large green 3 leaf shamrock glass plaque in honour of John Thomson along with the large 3 leaf shamrock used on his goalkeeper top which was common at that time. There are reports that the shamrock was used on the Wee Green Book from 1932, so maybe that trumps this one.
The 3 leaf shamrock is used often in the early days in Celtic publications, especially the Celtic Handbooks but one example of the 4 leaf is seen as early as 1908 when the club made up medals to commemorate the 4 trophies won that glorious year and gave them to the players. I was one of the very first to cast eyes on the Badge when I sat on my father’s knee on a Celtic bus in Bonnybridge and I was only two years old. Evidence has been found since this article was initially written that the Celtic four leafed clover badge was used officially even earlier in 1935, see below]. They are now worn as part of traditional Scottish dress, sitting at the top of your sock on a Kilt outfit.The judges who participated in the election, plus four judges from ESPORTE FINO, were: Everaldo Marques (ESPN Brazil), Helena Jacob (journalist, graphical teacher of design and master in semiotics), Mauricio Noriega (SporTV), Mauro Beting (Bandeirantes Radio, TV Band, BandSports) and Rodolfo Rodrigues (journalist and historian, author of the book, Badges of Football Teams of the Entire World). Still it’s the earliest use by the club of the symbol and a likely forerunner of the official badge.
Ned and Elizabeth were married in Shettleston in 1892 and they produced 16 children, the first born Mary 1893 and the youngest in 1915 – James. Along the top of the resulting green frame, they’ve written the club’s name – ‘the Celtic Football Club’ – in white letters. May perpetual light shine upon my Auntie Bridget and my Dad and Canon McCabe, and all deceased members of Celtic Supporters Clubs throughout the world. The emblem turned out very traditional and had just basic elements without any fancy ornaments or details.The obverse inscribed Celtic Football Club, 1908, the reverse inscribed Presented By The Directors Of Celtic F.

The original Celtic logo depicted a green Celtic cross (a thick shape with a ring behind the two lines. After our first year when the club badge was without doubt the Celtic Cross, it was another 90 years before the club badge would appear on the jerseys.In fact stronger proof that the official badge until 1938 was the 3 leaf is seen on the back of the 1929/30 season ticket with the badge stamped proudly.
