Tampa City Seal

The Seal of Tampa is Tampa government's official seal. The seal was made in Italy in the 1920s by Val Antuono, Sr.[1]

Design

The seal portrays a replica of the steam sailing vessel, the “Mascotte,” (pronounced Masco’) and named for an operetta[2]. The outside parameter shows the "City of Tampa, Florida" and "July 15, 1887", the date in which the city was organized under a special act of the Florida Legislature.
