Philadelphia Eagles Brief History

Based in Philadelphia, the Eagles is a professional football team established in 1933. The team is a member of the Eastern Division of the NFC in the NFL.

Actually, the Philadelphia Eagles served only as a replacement for Frankford Yellow Jacket, which had previously declared bankruptcy. It took more than a year to find the appropriate substitute. Eventually, the NFL gave the inactive franchise to a group led by Bert Bell and Lud Wray in exchange of $2,500 entry fee. From that day on, the Philadelphia Eagles fly and try to reach the sky, just like their fight song that is entitled “Fly, Eagles Fly”.

The Philadelphia Eagles has several home fields. The Baker Bowl is their first home, which they used from 1933 to 1935. Then they moved to the Philadelphia Municipal Stadium which is became their second home for 5 years. The Connie Mack Stadium served as their home field for 17 long years before they moved to Franklin Field and spent another 13 years there. From 1971 to 2002, the Veterans Stadium became their home field. Then they transferred to the Lincoln Financial Field, which they first used in 2003 up to now.

The first Philadelphia Eagles uniform dons the colors silver, white, and Kelly green. The team uses helmets with an eagle wings logo on it. It was in 1969 that the team started to wear two types of helmets in their games. For their road game, they used Kelly green helmet with white wings. For their homes games, they wear the white helmet with Kelly green wings. Several years later, the team color has changed from Kelly green to a much darker shade. The team’s first logo shows an eagle with a football on its claws. Eventually, they changed that to a white bald eagle head. The eagle is drawn in a less realistic manner, more of a cartoon-based inking. The word “Eagles” in the logo was also changed from the original calligraphic style print to block letters.
