The Rams franchise featured a distinctive logo almost immediately upon its acceptance into the National Football League in 1937. The rightward-facing ram's head in profile, still in use by the franchise today, was evident as early as this financial document from January 1940. Note the address for the “Office of the Manager” was for the Cleveland Arena and its main occupant, the minor-league hockey team Cleveland Barons—both owned by Rams shareholder Albert C. Sutphin. | Date: January 1940 | Source: Donald Gries CollectionDownload Original File
