What shape appears at the center of the American Revolution Bicentennial logo?
Answer
A white five-point star
A white five-point star appears at the center of the American Revolution Bicentennial logo.
The emblem consists of a white five-point star set inside a larger stylized star rendered in red, white, and blue. The design was created for the national commemoration of the American Revolution’s 200th anniversary.
The logo was surrounded by the wording “American Revolution Bicentennial 1776–1976,” set in Helvetica Regular. Its simple geometry made it suitable for reproduction on flags, printed materials, commercial products, and postage stamps.
The central star is sometimes misremembered as an eagle, Liberty Bell, or thirteen-star arrangement because those symbols were also strongly associated with American history and Bicentennial imagery. The logo itself uses a single white five-point star as its central element.
