Established in 1881, the Cincinnati Reds are a Major League Baseball team based in Cincinnati, Ohio and members of the National League Central Division.  The original logo consisted of the word “REDS” inside a wishbone “C” on a red and white color scheme.  During the 1950s, the Reds went through renaming and rebranding of the team as the Cincinnati Redlegs to avoid connections to the communist term ‘Reds.’   They added in the color blue along with their mascot Mr. Redlegs, a humanoid figure in a Reds uniform and an oversized baseball for a head with a large handlebar mustache.
