Walt Disney 1937–1996 The first incarnation of the Walt Disney logo was introduced in 1937. After it was discontinued in some year, it was also used on the Disney's Wonderful World of Reading logo until 1996.
1948–1984 Another logo based on Walt Disney's handwriting was created in the mid-1940s. After it was discontinued in 1972, this logo would be used again on the Walt Disney Home Entertainment logo from 1978 to 1984.
1960–1980 In 1960, a later variant was based on Walt Disney's handwriting. The typeface is still used as the main logo, but it has since been revised. Disney has retired this logo, for good, in 1980.
1964–present In 1964, the signature's typeface effectively became a bit smoother. It was first used in the 1964 World's Fair in New York, permanently before becoming the official logo in 1971.
This signature probably has the most recognizable and distinct letters; the “W” and the “D” that begin each word. The roundness has a single line down the center of the “D”, and the circle over the “i”, circles back toward the “D”. None of these characteristics are present in Walt Disney ’s real signature. For many decades, this logo would have been served as The Walt Disney Company’s longstanding logotype with a lifespan of 56 years.
2006–present In 2006, Disney began using a modified version of the 1964 logo, making the lines become a bit thinner. This logo was previously used on the Walt Disney Pictures logo until 2011, and is currently used on several other Disney properties, including Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures .
The Walt Disney Company 1986–present 1986–2009 On February 6, 1986, Walt Disney Productions changed its name to The Walt Disney Company . Prior to 2009, the words "The" and "Company" were set in Times New Roman.
2009–2012 In 2009, the words' fonts were switched over to Whitney, a new font that was created by Hoefler & Co.
2012–present In 2012, the company abandoned Whitney with a new font, called Benton Sans.
