03 Oct

An early logo of the National Football League’s Philadelphia Eagles, used from 1948 until 1968. The club won 3 NFL titles during the era of this logo, in 1948 and ’49 behind Hall of Famer Steve Van Buren, and in 1960. The ’48 and ’49 teams are the only ones in league history to win back-to-win titles by shutouts, defeating the Chicago Cardinals 7-0 in a blizzard, then downing the Los Angeles Rams 14-0 the next season. Besides Van Buren, other Hall of Famers who played for the Eagles in this era are Bob Brown, Chuck Bednarik, Norm Van Brocklin, Sonny Jurgensen, Pete Pihos and Tommy McDonald.
