Twitter's iconic bird logo sold at an RR auction for nearly $35K
The famous Twitter’s blue bird logo was sold at an RR Auction for nearly $35K! The iconic blue bird logo design was used to adorn the company’s San Francisco headquarters.
The logo of the social media platform was removed after almost two years when Elon Musk bought the company. After taking over the micro-blogging site, Elon Musk changed the company’s name X from twitter. The logo also underwent an update.
The Twitter emblem was 250 kg (560 pounds) with measurements 12 feet x 9 feet. According to RR Auction, it was sold for $34,375. However, who purchased it still remains a mystery as the platform didn’t reveal the identity of the buyer.
Besides, the Tesla CEO put up other items for auction previously, including office furniture, mementoes, and kitchenware.
The auctioned Twitter bird remained the foremost emblem of Twitter’s San Francisco headquarters from 2012 to 2023. Explore Twitter’s logo history to know how the logo changes took place and the stories behind it.
Elon Musk bought Twitter for $44 billion in 2022. In 2023, he announced that the blue bird would no longer be its brand identity. Switching it from Twitter to X showed Musk’s vision to turn it into an “everything app.”
