Kentucky Fried Chicken

1952–1973

1973–1991

The logo was updated for the first time, and adopted a new design including the mansard roof plus the cubic tower on the center front of their restaurants.

KFC

1991–1997

The 1991 logo was the first logo to refer to itself as 'KFC' rather than 'Kentucky Fried Chicken'. The reasoning behind this was that the word 'fried' was often associated with unhealthy foods. With this logo, the signature mansard roof was updated from the old brown shingles to the new red plastic strips.

1997–2006

This logo was designed by Landor Associates. Along with this logo, new and remodeled restaurants did away with the mansard roof from the two previous logos, and now have a flat roof and awnings directly above the windows and entrances. The signature tower was made thicker and edgier with a flatter pyramid, and new restaurants placed the tower on one of the corners of the front end rather than in the middle, though remodeled restaurants usually kept the tower in the middle where they were when they were first built.

2006–present

In 2006 Colonel Sanders was given a facelift, removing the wrinkles and replacing his trademark suit with an apron. The logo now has thick, bold lines which help the logo to stand out more. New and remodeled restaurants with this logo were updated once again, only with awnings flatter than from the previous logo and only above the windows where the tower stands, and have hanging black platforms with the words "WELCOME" and "DRIVE THRU" above the front doors and pick-up window respectively.
