1973 Throwback logo

yeah, you're right but, the question was, what's different about the LOGO?
 
I think the only difference was a slight shade difference in the aqua, one had a bluer hue while the other had a greener one, but you can't tell that from the photos.
 

I would still say that's only three due to the fact that the slight change in the second logo style was unexplained and likely not an actual design change. JMOthough.

I think that's the first time I've ever seen the first design....cool, learn something new all the time and it's twice as good, that I learned something new about the fins.:D
 
From the dolphins media guide -

The most recent modification to the Dolphins’ logo was
made prior to the 1997 season. This marked just the third
logo change in the 36-year history of the franchise, and
the first since 1972.
The original logo featured the dolphin jumping in front
of a sunburst using the team’s base colors (aqua, coral
and white). In 1972, the dolphin was repositioned in front
of the sunburst and the aqua color was strengthened. In
1997, the traditional logo and colors were kept as a base,
while the sunburst on the logo was accentuated and the
dolphin was strengthened with a stronger definition of its
shape. In addition, the sunburst was more prominently
displayed with the elimination of the hashmarks around
the sun’s perimeter, while the dolphin’s features were
accentuated by navy highlights.
 
Yay!....I was right too!......I mean, after I was wrong and all....:escape:
 
The point is that the logo for the thanksgiving game was right....
