Washington Redskins Logo - Chris Creamer's Sports Logos Page - SportsLogos.Net
I've tried to copy and paste the old feather used from 1959-1964, but have been unable to do so, so here is the link.
The purpose of the feather is the same as a ball cap bill, it was to shield the eyes from the sun.
A little tweak by Summo maybe would help it, but I like it better than the spear, or the R, or the current logo. Maybe on a Gold background as an alternative.
My least fav is the R.
