CFL Helmet Design History Question

Longtime Saskatchewan Roughriders fan am I. And yet, for all I rack my brains, I cannot recall seeing even in 1960's archival footage and still photos a helmet with ye aulde "football, wheat stalks and ribbon" insignia on them such as we see at assorted Riders games this year. The not-so-old Spaulding-logo-derived "S" with laurel wreathing, yes. I remember that very well!

But not this design I've been seeing on TV on the Riders' "retro" suits this year.

How'd that happen? Anyone?

Seems that South Africa and Nigeria are officially in the New Great Game:

Should be interesting to see how these developments play out over the next few decades.

You'll need Rosetta to run Corel Painter 8, but it will run on Mac OS 10.6. If someone can get word to the people running this site...

I'd be glad of it, thanks!
