A lot of enthusiasm pumped this 1880 project to a very wide popularity during it�s first 10 years, but linguistic and social inconsistencies within set it�s fall and disappearence by the turn if the century. Currently Volap�k is cultivated for fun by some enthusiasts, mostly esperantists. I don�t think they use any logo or badge.

Rodr�guez [rod97] shows a symbol consisting of a world map (two hemispheres) over a Mercury rod (with wings and snakes) and a plaque with the motto overall. This read "Menad bal, p�k bal", meaning "One humanity, one language". (Some times a variation with dative and accusative is used instead "Menade bal, p�ki bal".)
