Elks Wordmark Logo

The Edmonton Elks have one of the most iconic logos in Canadian Football League (CFL) history. Since its inception in 1949, the team has proudly worn a logo that is synonymous with football excellence and tradition. The logo features an elk’s head inside a shield, which has become widely recognized as one of the most recognizable symbols in all professional sports.

For more than 70 years, this classic emblem has been associated with success on and off the field for both players and fans alike. From winning championships to hosting memorable events such as Grey Cup games, it's no wonder why this symbol remains so beloved by Elks supporters across Canada today!

The original design was created by John Burchill Jr., who worked at the local printing company Gagnon & Sons from 1948-1958 before moving on to other ventures. It featured two elk heads facing each other within a shield shape surrounded by laurel leaves - representing strength and victory respectively - along with text reading "Edmonton Eskimos". This version was used until 1959 when it underwent some minor changes: namely replacing “Eskimos” with “Elks” (as they are now known), adding stars around its border for added flair/effectiveness visually speaking; plus adjusting font size/style slightly throughout various iterations over time too!

While there have been subtle modifications made since then – including switching out green coloring for blue – Burchill Jr.'s original concept remains largely unchanged despite being nearly seven decades old now; making it an enduring reminder not only how far Edmonton's CFL franchise had come but also just how timelessly stylish good design can be even after all these years later!
