There are two logo versions. Here's the first. Most collars are blue but looks to me that some aren't.

HOF database shows a blue collar, yet as seen in the home jerseys above, looks like some collars were not blue.

And here's the other logo style.

"P" logo now black and on both sleeves. Placket piping added, blue collar dropped.

1925

NL Golden Jubilee patch is worn on the left sleeve in place of the "P". For the 1925 World Series, a new home jersey has the "P" on both sleeves with the anniversary patch on the chest.
