Chief Wahoo Logo - Historical Cleveland Indians Mascot Design #199678 (License: Personal Use)

This stylized caricature features a smiling red-skinned Native American figure with a large grin, white teeth, and a single red feather in a navy-and-white headband. Designed in 1947 by Walter Indian, it became one of Major League Baseball’s most recognizable-and controversial-logos before being phased out in 2018 due to concerns over racial stereotyping.

Used historically on team merchandise, uniforms, and stadium signage; now primarily referenced in discussions about sports branding, cultural sensitivity, and the evolution of Indigenous representation in athletics.
