Although having existed as a minor league baseball team since 1969, the modern-day Iowa Cubs did not become affiliates of the MLB's Chicago Cubs until 1982. Originating as the Iowa Oaks, the team was bought out in 1981 by the Chicago Cubs and officially rebranded in 1982. Created during the team's first re-brand in 1982, the Iowa Cubs logo has remained the same since it's inception. However, over time, a number of alternate and "identity" logos have been released.
