This is an old logo of the National Football League’s Detroit Lions, used from 1952 to 1960, which was a golden era in the team’s history. Behind legendary quarterback Bobby Layne, the Lions played in 4 NFL title games in this era and won 3 of them. The Lions angered Layne when they traded him to the then lowly Pittsburgh Steelers at the end of his career and Layne said, “The Lions won’t win for 50 years now!”, which became known as the “Curse of Bobby Layne”. He was pretty prophetic. In fact the 50 years have already expired and the team is still struggling.
