Looking at the Ford logos throughout the years, it appears the "Pig tail" on the F came into existence in 1912.
..if I didn't know companies change their logo?
This is not a company changing it's logo.
One has to also keep in mind manufacturing and how it's done.
Unless a logo changes drastically, while it's very easy to go to a new logo for things printed on paper, stickers, posters, images, it's much harder to change the logo on things made of molded metal.
To do this, you'll have to change the machines that make those parts, be it either something that stamps or cuts the logo in, or if it's molded (normally see by the raised logo), you would have to change the entire mold.
This can cost very large amounts of money, and it is much easier to simply ensure that the next generation of moldings and machinery end up with the newer logo, as the older one will still be recognizable as what company it was manufactured from.
This is why a engine block can still have a much older logo by Ford (or Chevy, Dodge, Toyota, etc, etc), but have the newer logo in the owners manual for the car.

So are you saying the logo was the same except the curl on the F wasn't as pronounced?
I wouldn't notice a change in any logo unless it happened in front of me

They changed it........no conspiracy. Companies do change logos, fonts and update brands.

There is no point in comparing the Ford logo to Henry Ford's signature. The Ford logo isn't a copy of it. It is a creation of Ford's first chief engineer/designer, Childe Wills.
