For the first 80 years of the club's existence, playing shirts were without a club badge. Specially designed badges would only appear on Arsenal shirts for high-profile occasions, such as F.A. Cup finals.

The first of these badges was created for the 1927 final and consisted of a red AFC monogram on a white shield. Three years later a different badge was created for the 1930 final. This was the first time the famous Arsenal cannon would appear on the club's shirts.

The 1932 final saw the appearance of another monogram, this time inside Arsenal's first hexagonal badge. This badge, was a precursor to the more famous "A-football-C" Art Deco crest that would be used for the 1936, 1950 and 1952 finals. This crest, a brainchild of Herbert Chapman and Claude Waterlow Ferrier, has become a fans favourite and can still be seen today on scarves, clothes or stationery.
