Logo Design Brief
We need a logo design for a new online retailer. We specialize in helping connect collectors with hard to find sports cards, TCG cards and supplies for their collection's needs. As of now we deal in autograph and relic cards of notable players, as well as unique and rare cards for TCG's (trading card games). We will be expanding into other hobbies as time allows. IE Metal detecting and treasure hunting, RC cars and planes, and Arduino supplies (robotics). We want to fill the gap online where a hobbyist has to deal with multiple specialized shops for their hobby and bring them all into one location for their unique hobbys.The name Iron Horse is derived from Lou Gehrig. It was his nickname when he played baseball. It is also a nickname for a steam engine for a train. My father suffers from ALS (Lou Gehrigs Disease, Ice Bucket Challenge), a terminal disease where the average life expectancy is 3 to 5 years. He's going on 8 years. This shop is named as a tribute to him and baseball's golden history. We would like to see a logo that incorporates the steam engine, or a mechanical horse and has a vintage looks to it (Circa 1940's, WWII era) We would like it to communicate the feeling of reliability and strength.

Requirements
Must have
- Either a Train engine (Circa 1940's) or a mechanical horse (we deal in fantasy cards too, think steam punk) And the number "4" integrated somewhere (either train number or somewhere on the horse) "4" is Lou Gehrigs jersey number
Nice to have
- We would like to see someone have fun with this. We do want the vintage look, but we would like to see something alternative. Maybe a mechanical horse rounding 3rd base, or a train barreling on.
